I was walking through an airport and a man near me walked up to two military servicemen he didn't know and said, "Thank you for your service." It got me thinking. It's pretty easy for me to be disconnected from the sacrifices our military personnel make. Stories around Veteran's Day always put a face on the sacrifices made, but it's easy to forget. That's why I now make it a practice to walk up to military personnel I don't know and say, "Thank you." Perhaps you'll join me.
