Here’s another big thank you for all of you who have served our wonderful country!
We celebrated by posting a pic of our favorite veteran (82 yo combat vet of 26 years; served in Korea and Viet Nam) in the local newspaper.

We celebrated by going to a veterans program presented by the elementary school grades 1-3. My grand daughter got to lead the pledge to the flag.

There were patriotic songs, including the national anthem, and songs for each of the services; a slide show of pictures of the children’s relative and their branch of service. Then refreshments for the Veterans and visitors.

It was a really great tribute!
