Yesterday was amazing. People from around the nation were commemorating and honoring veterans and active service members around the world. At the tomb of the unknown soldier, a wreath was hung by the President, and a moment of silence was given. On the aircraft carrier, USS CARL VINSON, a basketball game was played in honor of our veterans. Parades, interviews, marching bands and television appearances were all a part of remember those who served and serve in the United States military. But what about today? What about the day after?
After all the fan-fare and celebration is over, after all the attention and honor has been given, the military forces around the world continue on their missions. While others who are free go about daily routines, men and women in uniform continue to fight, preserve and protect our country. These are the most well trained and equipped military personnel in the world, and their mindset is one to be thought of every day.
Once again allow this writer to thank those who give their lives on a day to day basis whether there is acknowledgment or not, and should their be a military person or loved one or family member who desires to have a devotional that is directed toward a continual thank you for service, consider “Equipped for Battle – From Generation to Generation” two men's effort to be in gratitude.
Until tomorrow...Why Say More?
