One of the readers of this blog has sent me information (see below) about an organization whose mission I totally respect and support. You might be interested in learning about it, too. It doesn't matter if you are Republican or Democrat, a hawk or a dove, this is an honorable organization everyone would be interested in supporting (except for the military-hating Kansas church led by Fred Phelps). There are branches of Patriot Guard in many states--you can look it up online at their national site: www.patriotguard.org
Thanks to Bob, who alerted me to this organization and its good work in honoring our veterans!
We will all observe Veterans Day in our own way…some of us will attend events, stand a Flag Line at a special mission, take a moment to reflect on what this day means to you or perhaps, shake a hand or two for those who currently serve and who have served.

Patriot Guard and Associates:
I hope this note finds you all doing well, with power and staying dry and warm!
On the eve of Veterans Day 2012, I would like to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you for the work you do for our Veterans and 1st Responders.
For many of us, Veterans Day is a year-long endeavor to honor those who have served and not a single day observed on calendar. We Stand for Those Who Stood for us, anytime, anywhere, in any weather and we do it as it is our honor to do so. Whether you are able to make missions, stand a Flag Line, help out behind the scenes, or just keep our Veterans in your thoughts and prayers, you serve with professionalism and integrity as a proud member of PGR! What you do makes a difference in the lives of others and for that, I am very appreciative to be part of such an honorable organization.

From Harry S Truman:
"Our debt to the heroic men and valiant women in the service to our country can never be repaid. They have earned our undying gratitude. America will never forget their sacrifices"
Once again, thank you for what you do for others!
