They are always there. They never ask for a thank you, and they sacrifice more than any other person in many cases. They are our service men and women-the ones who fought and died so that we have the freedom that we have today. Some see things that we could only visit in a nightmare, yet they dedicate their lives and give their life for people that they will never meet. They do this because they all share a common goal: love for our country. So next time you are out shopping, having a family outing, or just watching television; remember those who gave their lives or lost a friend fighting for our country.

Thank you Veterans for your service.

September’s charity will go to, The Scholarship Program at the School of Music at Hill Productions!
