Another month has started, and it is getting closer to the start of a new year, less than two months away. It seems that at the end of this year, there are more events to send the old year out.
Veterans Day is Tuesday. There are many veterans in this county. This is the only day of the year devoted to them. If one knows a veteran, give them thanks for their service. They made the sacrifice for this country, so give them respect.
