Veteran's Day

It's Veteran's Day.

Memorial Day is when we honor those that died to give us our freedom.

Veteran's Day is the day when you have your chance to say thanks, alive and in person, to those who will soon be memorialized.

I'm not naive, I know many of you do that every chance you get.

I served but never fought, and in some ways that disappoints me. But then I look back at my experience in the Navy and I realize that no matter what, my time in the Navy will guide me well for the rest of my life.

So I say thanks to all of those who went in before me, whose cumulative wisdom helped me become the man I am today.
