Today is Veterans Day in the U.S. Do our children know what it really means, in addition to a day off from school, parades and flags?

Do they realize that without the veterans’ service for our country, from the Revolutionary War forward, we might not be enjoying the freedoms we have today?
Have you researched the veterans in your family heritage and shared this with your children? Some of us have ancestors who served in the Revolutionary War and other wars to the present.
So…many thanks to all those, including my husband, who have served and are serving so that we might have our freedom and that others around the world might experience some of what we have.
