I echo your sentiments to all fellow veterans. To all still on active duty, stay the course!

Thank you too all who have served and to those that continue to serve.

Thank you to all who have served and all who continue to serve our great country. You have my utmost respect and admiration.
 
In 2010 I made my first trip to Washington DC for our mid-year Realtor meetings. At the end of the meetings my wife flew out and we spent 3 days on the national mall and around town.

What I'll never forget are the war memorials. I walked amongst heroes those days. I've read so much about the bravery of our soldiers in some of our major conflicts from WW2, Vietnam, Korea, Iraq, and Afghanistan. I hold those men and women in the utmost regard for their service, and for some their ultimate sacrifice.

Thank you Veterans. God bless.
 
A man I know who passed last week that was in the Battle of the Bulge. He was 18 at the time they were called upon to stop the surge of the German army. I can't imagine the kind of sacrifice and the 9 kinds of hell those troops lived through in the winter of 1944. They were called upon to serve their country and ended up saving the world.

My dad served on Okinawa in WWII but he was never able to put it behind him when he came home. Now I guess they call it PTSD but all I knew as a kid was that he was stuck in WWII.

To all those that served and sacrificed, thank you. Our world would be a much worse place if you hadn't answered the call.
 
To those who gave it all, to those that lead my way, to those I proudly served with, and to those that stand ready today ... Happy Veterans Day

Freedom isn't free. It has been and is still being paid for with the sacrifices of so many. Nothing I can say could express the gratitude I feel. I have 2 veterans working for me and always give them preference when hiring.
 
Thank you to all the EGrizzers who are serving or have served. Thank you for doing what you did so my family and myself can sleep safe at night and live free at day!

Special thank you to Leon Jordan, R.I.P. you paid the ultimate sacrifice for us all.

And to my Grandfather, C. Norman Beck, you will forever be a member of the band of brothers and the Greatest Generation. R.I.P.
 
Thank you to all that have and are serving. Special thanks to Mtgrizrule for your service! TFalls Bluehawks..
 
It has been said
"If you love your freedom, Thank a Veteran"
It is the VETERAN, not the preacher, who has given us freedom of religion.
It is the VETERAN, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press.
It is the VETERAN, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech.
It is the VETERAN, not the campus organizer, who has given us freedom to assemble.
It is the VETERAN, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial.
It is the VETERAN, not the politician, who has given us the right to vote.
"ALL GAVE SOME, SOME GAVE ALL"

To my Dad also part of the greatest generation. Army, Air Force RIP.
To all that have served or our serving I hope we can live up to your sacrifices.
 
Thanks to all my fellow Brothers and Sisters... RIP to my tough USMC Father who didn't talk to me for a week when I joined the Army :lol:
