I have been on tap to write this Saturday post on this Veterans Day for a while. I have spent time reading individual stories of LIVING veterans. This day is about all those who have served but focusing on the living. I read stories about Gunnery Sergeant Jessie Jane Duff, PFC Marie Daume born in a prison in Siberia, Tennessee Congressman Mark Green who is also a physician and Army Major, and probably at least one hundred others. I also read posts from years past. It was when I read a post that our Kate did nearly a decade ago that it hit me. There are too stories many to tell only one.
