"We are forever indebted to those who have given their lives that we may be free." -President Ronald Reagan Dear Veterans, Thank you. I am forever grateful for you. I promise to never forget the sacrifices you have made for the sake of our nation. For every birthday, Christmas, and moment you missed while you were serving our nation, we remember. Thank you for defining servant leadership and showing me what it means to be a patriot. Thank you for writing and living an invaluable story, the story of a hero who has epitomized patriotism. Thank you for teaching me lessons greater than anything I could ever read in a textbook. You have changed my life and shaped me into the person I am today. You have ignited my passions and stimulated my desire to serve. You are my greatest inspiration, and you are America's greatest heroes. Happy Veterans Day. Coordinating the Veterans Day Celebration at my school has been a special way to share patriotism with my peers and teachers while paying tribute to our servicemen and women. Here is a link to this year's ceremony, featuring Keynote Speaker Lt. Col. (Ret.) Steve Gray. He served in the Air Force for 24 years and is an amazing role model and friend.
