Saturday is Veteran’s Day. November 11th
is the day that World War I ended in 1918. Britain, France, Belgium,
Israel, Poland, and Canada and a dozen other countries will honor their
veterans and remember the end of the war, pray for peace and an end to war. What
will you do on your day off tomorrow? You may sleep in, you may go to a
movie, or you may catch up on your homework. Some of you may attend a
veteran’s day ceremony or parade on Saturday. But, while you do this, take a
moment to remember those gave their lives for the freedom you enjoy today. Thank
you, veterans past and present. Thank you for living and dying for us. We
will never forget.
