Iowa Voice (Brian) Veteran’s Day Weekend 2006 — “In honor of our brave men and women in uniform, in honor of all those who have served, and in honor of those who have given the ultimate sacrifice for me, my family, and our great country, I will be devoting the weekend to the observance of Veteran’s Day.” [Please be sure to check back at Iowa Voice all weekend. Jim]

Flopping Aces (Wordsmith) Veterans Day Post — “Everything we have in this country, we owe to the brave men and women who have lived- and who have sometimes died- wearing the proud uniform of the U.S. military. Our prosperity is made possible, because they stand in the way of those who would do us harm.”

I will be adding links to other Veterans Day tributes as I find them. If you have a Veterans Day post you can link and trackback to this post and it will appear below. (Please link any other posts to the most recent Overnight News Open Post)
