Veterans Day is a time to remember and pay tribute to those that served our country in times of peace and war — the men and women that dedicated their time in the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force and Coast Guard.

Remember our hospitalized veterans. Perform chores for the disabled. Attend parades and teach your children that freedom is not free.

To all the veterans: Show your pride in a job well done; march or ride in this and very Veterans Day parade. Remember, you earned this and it is a thank you for your service from your community and country.
