Friend,
As Americans,
we join together today to honor those who have put their lives on the
line for our country. And on this special day, I want to share with you
what Veterans Day means to me.
My three
brothers all served in our armed forces; one brother served 288 combat
missions in Vietnam. I remember when they would come back from overseas.
It was like Christmas, my birthday, and the 4th of July all rolled into
one. Family came in from everywhere, and we celebrated their getting
home. I am -- and always have been -- incredibly proud of my brothers
and everyone who serves.
On Veterans
Day, we honor our servicemen and women, and we recognize that they are
extraordinary people who do incredible things for all of us. They are
tough, resourceful, creative, and courageous, with families backing them
up who share their commitment and strength. Today we celebrate their
service and recognize their sacrifices. They earn our thanks and
appreciation every day.
Wishing you all the best for your Veterans Day,
Elizabeth
Warren
