After last week's celebration of Veteran's Day and the recent tragedy at Fort Knox we have been mindful of the great work and sacrifice that our armed forces contribute to our nation. We are thankful for the past and current service members who work tirelessly for our freedoms. Personally, I am very proud to call many of them family and dear friends.
Veteran's Day has passed, but let us be thankful all year! Here are a few ways you can reach out to say thank you. If you ask a service member they will tell you it means more than you know.
