Today I am truly thankful for those who have served and are still serving our country. I know I take for granted the sacrifices that military personnel and their families make on a daily basis. Because of the men and women of the armed forces, we can go to sleep in peace. We have freedoms that don’t exist in many places around the world, and the people of our military have played a role in securing and sustaining those freedoms.

Thank you, veterans. A day really isn’t enough.
