Veterans Day 2015

Submitted by admin on Tue, 10/20/2015 - 8:39am

When Francis Scott Key wrote the “Star Spangled Banner,” he called America “the land of the free and the home of the brave.” Those words are as true today as they were then.
Throughout this nation’s history, America’s soldiers, sailors, airmen, Marines, and Coast Guardsmen have bravely answered the call to defend our freedom, to come to the aid our friends and allies, and to turn back aggressors.
