It’s easy to buy a card to celebrate holidays, but sometimes it takes a little more, especially when it comes to our Veterans. They sacrifice their lives, time with their families and friends, and so much more. One day to honor them seems like so little. Here is just a sampling of activities and more to salute them tomorrow.
And … have you purchased a green light? Find out about it here.
