Letter: Thanking all veterans for their service
Tuesday was Veterans Day and throughout our state and in the country there were celebrations honoring our veterans and countless merchants, offered free meals and discounts. I would be remiss if I didn’t take a moment to thank all of those who recognize our veterans and honored their service and sacrifice. In Ogden, my American Legion Post was honored to host a Veterans Day program as we have done for countless years. We were honored to have the FFA students from Weber high school assisting us, they give me hope for our country as they were such eager participants.
Thanks to all of my fellow veterans for your service and remember if you were hurt or injured there are service officers available to help you for free including my American Legion post at 845 W. 24th St where we see Veterans each Friday night at 5 p.m. to help with VA claims. The DAV and the VFW and the state veterans office also offers free service officer assistance.
