Veterans Day
When Francis Scott Key wrote the “Star Spangled Banner” almost 200 years ago, he called America, “the land of the free and the home of the brave.” Those words are as true today as they were then.
Throughout this Nation’s history, America’s soldiers, sailors, airmen, Marines and coastguardsmen have bravely answered the call to defend our freedom, to aid our friends and allies, and to turn back aggressors.
We can never fully repay our debt of gratitude to the more than 650,000 American service members who died in battle or the 1.4 million who were wounded. We can, however, recognize and thank the 25 million veterans still living today.
Today is a day to honor all Veterans. Preble High School would like to honor our own:
· Mr. Al Pannier
· Mr. Matt Fellinger
· Mr. Mike Forrest
· Mr. Jim Rutkowski
· Mr. Scott Reeners
· Mr. David Quayle
· Mr. Russell Dern
· Mr. Bruce McLeod
Remember to thank these people for their service and thank those Veterans in your life today.
