I wasn't much of a soldier, but I served my nation, for which I am proud.
I would like to take this opportunity to wish all veterans a Happy Veterans Day and to thank you all for your service and sacrifice.

Doesn't matter WHAT you did Tenn, the fact that you raised your hand and swore an oath to protect this country from all enemies, foreign and domestic, is all that counts.

A reminder to those on the U.S. East Coast, on Eastern Standard Time, it is about time to strike the colors, if you've put

out a flag to commemorate Veterans Day, and do not have it illuminated by a spotlight. I'm going to do that now,

4:48 p.m. and definitely toward dusk.
