Remembering our Veterans

Today undoubtedly you will see many tributes to our veterans on television, in print and on the web. Last week when I spent a day in Boulder City, I spent some time driving through the different neighborhoods and visiting the historic part of the city. One of the recent additions to Boulder City was a Veteran's cemetery located off of Veteran's Memorial Drive and Commons Way. There is an onsite chapel and a computer terminal that will help you locate a loved one's resting place. There are also pavers and monuments to the various branches of the armed forces. As for what we can say to describe our vets, I think this monument sums it up best.

uncommon valour was a common virtue

To all our members of the armed forces, thank you. Your sacrifices are appreciated.
