[ We Salute You! ]
This last Friday, my kiddo's school hosted a Veterans Day Salute... including a Parade where a wide variety of Vets drove around the campus and all the amazing boys and girls were outside waving miniature American flags and signs saying "Thank You For Serving" - pretty incredible.
Happy Veterans Day my friends. As is my heartfelt tradition on this day, we, the men and women of Metalcloak, salute and thank each and every one of you who has served, is serving, planning to serve or supported a family member or friend who served.
Every year on Veterans Day I like to climb on the proverbial soapbox and share just how important this single day is to each and every one of us.
As you know, we can go on and on about the importance of our Vets in the history of this country and why you can never over-thank those who have served.
So, every chance I get, I thank a Vet and I hope you do too... just like this poem by Joanna Fuchs...
-----
Take A Moment To Thank A Veteran
When you see someone in a uniform,
Someone who serves us all,
Doing military duty,
Answering their country’s call,
Take a moment to thank them
For protecting what you hold dear;
Tell them you are proud of them;
Make it very clear.
Just tap them on the shoulder,
Give a smile, and say,
"Thanks for what you’re doing
To keep us safe in the USA!"

Thank a Vet, not just today, but every day.
