November 11th, 2009

I wanted to take the time today, on our nations day Veteran Recognition, to thank all of our brave men and woman who risked their lives for our freedom.  Many of our partners have served in the military, and for that we owe them a debt of gratitude that can never be repaid.  Thank you Veterans!
