The Gospel of Luke tells a story about a Roman Centurion that sought
Jesus to heal his sick servant, but it also tells us that he was
both a dedicated soldier and had a love for country.
While that is a wonderful story of one man’s faith and service,
it also points to the dedication that
millions of people, both past and present, have given in performance to
the service of our country. These Men and Women are our Veterans,
and today is the day that we honor them for their service.
Some may have served a single tour of duty, while others spent an
entire career, there were many more that paid the ultimate price and
laid their lives down for their friends and country.
In all cases, we owe a huge thank you to all those that serve and have served.
