Veteran’s Day Salute to all who serve!

November 11, 2009

As I wrote the headline, I paused for a moment on the word serve.  Should it be serve or should it be served?  I quickly decided that serve was the right, as service to our country never ends.   To all those who have died, to all those who have retired, to all those currently in the armed forces — all continue to serve!  We at Team Dykeman thank you for your service and all the freedoms your service provides us.  

I was passed a link that I thought very appropriate to a include on Veteran’s Day.
