Veteran's Day...it doesn't get any better than this





 I Am A Retired Veteran

   By Norman E. Hooben USAF, MSgt, Retired

  I am a retired veteran of the United States Armed Forces

  Now I am a member of We The People…
  During my active duty years I’ve seen war and rumors of war
  I protected We The People…
  I fought for God and country Blessed by We The People…
  The path I chose was The road not taken by We The People….

  They were the best years of my life
  Unbeknown to We The People…
  The hardships I endured Will never be shared
  by We The People…
  With more than twenty years in uniform
  Now I dress as We The People….
  Time moves on and I’m here to say
  Freedom is not free for We The People….
  When it was said that old soldiers never die
  They just fade away by We The People….
  When the time has come and my years are spent
  I’ll be buried by We The People….
