Each year we dedicate one day to our armed forces. The dedicated men and women who serve their country should have the support of the entire United States. No matter which branch a person serves in, they have gained our honor and respect. They defend our country from any threat in the world.

I am glad to support our military members and all the sacrifices they have made. I want to thank our former president Harry Truman for announcing this holiday on Feb. 20, 1950. I hope that everyone will join with me in supporting our troops!
