 by Skip Cohen It's Veteran's Day, and while this might be a short post, it's long on sentiment. Several years ago I took my Dad on an Honor Flight trip to Washington. They're a remarkable organization working to bring as many veterans to D.C. to see and appreciate the various military memorials. One of my favorite quotes Honor Flight has shared on their website over the years is: "If you can read this, thank a teacher. If you can read this in English, thank a veteran." From Honor Flight  That's my Dad on the far left with the whole gang from our Honor Flight adventure in 2015.  So, to our son Brian, who's currently serving, Uncle Randy, friends who served, mostly in Viet Nam, and the sons and daughters of friends serving today, thank you for your service and sacrifice. We're able to live the life we do, thanks to everything you've given for this country. And if you have a veteran in the family, make it a point to check out HonorFlight.org. It's a pretty amazing experience. Just click on the banner below. "We can't all be heroes because somebody has to sit on the curb and clap as they go by!"
