It's sad that to so many, this is just a day off of work or school. There are some big department store Sales. And... every car dealer has turned today into an event. I don't believe this was the intention when those in power arrived at "the 11th hour, on the 11th day.... etc."
Today is Veteran's Day. A day specifically defined as the day to salute those serving and to those who have served in our brave military around the world. I am however impressed that several restaurant chains have advertised that vets can eat at their establishments for FREE today. That's at least something.
If you attend a special service today, like the one held here on the Shore at Ocean Pines, feel proud to have associated with some of the greatest people on Earth. If you see someone wearing a VFW or American Legion cap, or a cap from a Naval Ship, or a cap from a specific military division, or if you see someone in uniform, be sure to sincerely, offer your thanks. Shake their hand.
Fly your flag today. God bless this great country!
