Veteran's Week

Tuesday- United States Marines- The Marine veterans we honor today came from all walks of life, but they shared several fundamental qualities. They possessed courage, pride, determination, selflessness, dedication to duty, and integrity-but above all, they were always faithful. Semper Fidelis. Their service and loyalty to this nation is a testament of the blood they shed to endure the freedoms that we enjoy on a day to day basis. Thank you.

Wednesday-  United States Navy- Michel De Montaigne once said, "Valor is stability, not of legs and arms, but of courage and the soul." Valor is something a veteran will always keep with them.  Whether they served in times of peace, or in strife and war. Yet navy veterans don't risk their life for themselves. A notorious motto they carry is Non Sibi Sed Patriae." Meaning "not for self but for country." Their bravery matched with valor is not for the glory for themselves, but for the prosperity of our country and the ideas it stands by.  Thank you.
