Men like these reflect an aspect of character that it seems has been largely forgotten in our culture today. Men who define their pleasure and happiness, not from what they can suck from others, but from what they can give. From how they can serve. From principle. As we honor our veterans today, let’s not forget that ultimately the best way we can honor them is to value their example of selfless service and honor in duty such that we demonstrate these in our lives. Let’s also remember that the greater context of our national heritage, dating all the way back to Colonial America, demands that we understand the greatest Example on which this nation was built.

Thank you for this, Mike. My family has a long tradition of military service and I know I can speak for them all in telling you we really appreciate the recognition.
