A Salute to Veterans

(A day late … but traveling all day yesterday.)

My dad was a Marine in World War II. My brother was a Marine Helicopter Pilot. I was the proverbial black sheep of the family when I went to Army Infantry out of Notre Dame.

Yesterday was Veteran’s Day … but we should honor, celebrate and salute our veterans, as well as the men and women who are currently serving our country around the world, EVERY DAY!

Just one of those really BIG THINGS that sets the United States apart from the rest of the world.

Special Note: I think we have an opportunity in the Third Sector/For Impact World to help reintegrate returning military men and women. There are a lot of great OPPORTUNITIES within our world to make great use of the discipline, training and attitude instilled by the military.

Something to think about.
