Our freedom comes at a price
It's easy for all of us to complain, debate, and argue over what's right and wrong in our part of the world. But it comes at a price that all too often we take for granted. On this Veteran's Day / Memorial Day, Remembrance Day and Armistice Day, take a moment to pay respect for those who sacrificed so much to enable us to have freedom.
As tensions rise on the Korean Peninsula with patrol boats firing at each other, Columbia and Venezuela heating up political rhetoric, in addition to the war going on in Afghanistan and Iraq, those that serve in armed forces around the world should be remembered and supported.
