I was walking in a mall and a young man told me, “Thank you for your service.” I was wearing an Army hat. That made my day, and made me feel proud. Doesn’t happen all that often, but when it does you feel a rush of pride.

Everytime I see a veteran I thank them for their service. You can see their eyes light up. It makes them feel good, and me too. Often we stop and talk. Too rushed, but gratifying.

Take time to greet your fellow veterans. They are your brothers and sisters.

I encourage you to check on your friends and neighbors. I did that and found that three of my neighbors were veterans. One of them was a WWII veteran. Two have passed on, but they will be remembered forever.

I go to coffee twice a week, and I found out that two of my coffee buddies are veterans. There is another coffee group that meets at the same time. They have three veterans.

Reach out to find veterans. Be their friends, and help them if they need help.
