Thank you, veterans,
For all you’ve done to stand up

God speed to you all.

Veterans:
Thank you.
Standing, fighting, struggling…

Poem of the Week: A Day for Heroes (Veterans Day 2018)


A Day for Heroes (Veterans Day 2018)

November 10, 2018

Valor in the face of uncertainty,
Eyes and ears alert at all times,
Threats aplenty faced over the decades,
Effort always in fighting slime,
Rigorous training in defending freedom,
Adamantly protecting the U.S. dream,
Never slacking in preparing for the worst,
Solidarity more than any other team.

Destined for glory in answering the call,
American colors flying true,
Years of service you’ve paid for our sake…

…This day, heroes, is for you.
