Armed Forces Day, 2018
If you serve, or have served in the U.S. Armed Forces, we thank you.
Happy Memorial Day 2017!
Remember our fallen warriors.
A tough job Americans will do.
Whatever the reason, these men and women have chosen a vocation that routinely requires sacrifice, sometime of the ultimate kind. That is why today is their day, a day for them to be proud, and the rest of us to be proud of them.
