Thank you!!

A “Veteran” – whether active duty, discharged, retired, or reserve – is someone who, at one point in their life, wrote a blank check made payable to “The United States of America,” for an amount of “up to, and including their life.”

I want to say thank you to you and any of your friends or family that are or have served for our country.

Happy Veteran’s Day; it takes a special person to be willing to write that blank check.

Retired SEAL raises awareness for wounded vets at Brickyard 400 From pace-car rides and waving the green flag to presenting the trophy to the winner of Sunday’s Brickyard 400, retired Navy SEAL Jason Redman is enjoying every second of his “once-in-a-lifetime” racing experience this weekend.

As the current President of the Student Veterans Organization and a former USAF TACP I am honored to have trained under Sgt. Del Toro and happy to see his continued fight for awareness on pressing issues.
