Veterans come from all walks of life. Many were drafted. Many volunteered.
Military veterans served in peacetime, others in wars. Some, in both.
None evaded their duty, giving up some of their young years to be in uniform, either fighting to defend their country, or being prepared to do so, if called upon.
To veterans, the young and the old, from every branch of our military, I thank you for not having those disappearing bone spurs, that would have prevented you from serving our country.
I especially thank you for your service.
