President Reagan was one of the greatest presidents ever in our Whitehouse. ❤

[@shawnchief28]

Wow a president who wasn't afraid about giving thanks to our Lord and savior Jesus Christ. I miss those days....finally God Bless a veterans

[@johnlozauskas778]

I agree with your sentiment but Reagan was quoting a WW 2 general. The cemetery shown had Christians, Jews, Muslims, and atheists who died protecting our freedom.

Thank you to all my brothers-in-arms, past and present!

[@dougdeal]

Great video. Just wanted to say that veterans Day does not have an apostrophe because it is not a day that belongs to veterans, it is a day honoring veterans. I used to make the same mistake.

[@thomasostrowski4286]

Proper English literature might suggest an apostrophe doesnt belong in Veteran's Day, but it's wrong. Because it is a day that belongs to veteran's, part of honoring them, was making said day there's

[@hattjl]

@@thomasostrowski4286 thank you making this correction to the original post! It does belong to we the Veteran's

[@medfordwayne3789]

........THE-GUARDIANS....TO-ALL-VETERANS......PEACE.
