Unknown veterans deserve honor

Posted May 29, 2016 1:01 am

I am only one in million of millions in American history. Most of these millions are unknown to you, me, wives, fathers, clergy, short order cooks, bus boys, cabbies, bus drivers, store clerks, teachers, students, librarians, governors, presidents and professors to list a few, except for small unrelated groups sharing the same commonality of those millions.

Many of our mothers and fathers were young, energetic, idealistic, and futuristic with a strong and ever presence of right and wrong and when tested Dec. 7, 1941, they served and overcame the evil that enveloped the world.

Yes, I am talking about the millions of unknown veterans who served and too those brave veterans who paid the ultimate price for your freedom.

Honor them!
