With Veterans Day approaching, VetFriends.com - the largest Web site for reuniting veterans - has created an online Veterans Day Forum reaching out to U.S. veterans and anyone else interested in contributing their thoughts and insights in regards to our U.S. military personnel and Veterans Day. Personal stories, sentiments and words of thanks can be found online in a Veterans Day collection throughout October and November at www.vetfriends.com/
In addition to the forum, VetFriends.com has posted a U.S. veteran and military tribute video thanking and honoring the many brave men and women who have and are currently serving the nation. The theme of the video: What do U.S. veterans and military mean to America? The original video can be viewed in its entirety and commented on at: http://www.youtube.com/
Here are a few quotes from the Veterans Day forum:
