Today, I stand in deep gratitude for the millions of veterans who have selflessly served this incredible nation.
Your sacrifices echo in every moment spent away from your families and loved ones. The weight of leaving behind the comfort of home, especially small children, to stand on the frontlines is a courage few can fathom.
Thank you for venturing into unfamiliar territories, fighting battles that secure our safety and freedom. Your dedication allows any American to voice dissent against the government without fear of repercussion. Compare that to places like North Korea, where such liberties are unimaginable.
To your families, who bear the weight of uncertainty each day, praying for your safety while enduring their own sacrifices – thank you for your resilience and unwavering support.
Your choice to volunteer, to make these immense sacrifices, speaks volumes. In a nation without a military draft for many years, you stepped forward to serve, and our gratitude knows no bounds. America stands in salute to your valor, your commitment, and your immeasurable contributions. Thank you.
