A day to remember and pay tribute to the men and women who hve served our great country. It's been nearly a decade since Vietnam Veterans cam a home, but as with all wars; the scars, though they may fade, remain with us all. The Veterans Administration reports that 1,081,000 Ameri cans have died in the defense of their country in all American wars since 1776, and more than 30 million former servicemen have served during both war and peacetime. The VA also states "From 1971 to 1975, Veterans Day was observed on the fourth Monday in October in compliance with a 1968 law that changed most national holidays to Mondays. "Believing however, that the November 11 date held great significance for this country, Congress passed a law in 1975 which returned the holiday to November 11. The law became effective in 1978, the 16th anniversary of the World War I armistice." At a time when our nation is living in and trying to resoslve an economic recession, high unemployment rates and a Social Security Administration that must face changes to remain in existance, it is difficult to focus on positive aspects of living in the US today. However, when we hear of people who give up their possessions, and many times leave families behind to try for a chance to live in the US, where freedom reigns, we're slapped in the face with reality. A reality of living in a free country, which we all take for granted. A reality for which we must credit our leaders and veterans.
