Veteran's Day

Many people may not have noticed Veteran's Day today, for the simple fact that it fell on a Saturday and therefore, most of us didn't score a day off from work. But, of course, that isn't the point. In a week where we saw the democratic process kicked into high gear, there is a lot to be proud of. I was proud to see that the system works, and when people want change in America, they can work to achieve it. I am also proud that we have young men and women that still choose to sacrifice a lot of the liberties you and I might enjoy to ensure that it stays that way. To all of them - whether it was Normandy, Inchon, Khe Sanh, Sadr City, Tora Bora, or countless other places - Metro D thanks veterans everywhere for their sacrifice.
