Honoring Our Veterans (Nov 11, 2018)

Veterans Day was originally named Armistice Day. It marks the anniversary of the end of World War I. This is the 100 year anniversary of that armistice which went into effect at the 11th hour, of the 11th day, of the 11th month, 1918. In 1926, Congress passed a resolution for an annual observance on November 11th. This became a national holiday in 1938. Unlike Memorial Day, Veterans Day pays tribute to all American veterans, living or dead. Veterans day gives special recognition to living veterans who served their country honorably during war or peace.

These veterans are our colleagues, parents, children, friends, and neighbors. We honor and thank them for their service. Their sacrifices have ensured our freedom and safety.

I hope you don’t mind a personal indulgence as I include a photo of my favorite veteran, Tom Batey. He began his 33 year military career as a fighter pilot in the Army Air Corp during WWII. I want to personally thank him, and every veteran for their service to our nation.

Aloha,
Kevin

My co-workers who volunteer for the AFA are dedicated to protect members' interests, making career improvements while advocating safe working conditions for all. No matter what has happened in my life or career, the AFA has always been there to help. All I had to do was ask.

Life is an adventure. Travel and take risks.
