Please fly your flag tomorrow and remember to say thanks to a Veteran tomorrow especially. They are a daily reminder of why we have the freedom we do today.

Absolutely, Nuts! They are the best!

I'm one of the lucky ones, as I get to meet veterans throughout Delaware, almost on a daily basis. They are all very special people! That is one of the main reasons I'm still working 50-60 hours/week. It's not really "work" to me, but a pleasure!

Thank you to all Veterans!

God bless America and God bless our Vets !

I hope and pray President Trump rights the wrong and addresses the concerns of our VA Hospitals. They deserve nothing but the best of care.

HAPPY VETERANS DAY TO ALL AND ESPECIALLY TO ANY VETS HERE.
My flag has been out since early this morning.
Unfortunately I am still living in NY, my plans for DE have been put on hold for awhile unfortunately. I have been wanting to move to DE for a good three years, but other family obligations have slowed me down.

Thank you Nuts. My husband was a Ranger and a Green Beret. He never went to a conventional war. He just went away for a few weeks or a few months, came back, and was a bit crazy. They can't pay you enough for that...

As a daughter of a WW II vet who was awarded the purple heart, my sister and I were instilled with not only respect for our military bit also respect for the flag. It makes no difference if they were on the front line and saw bullets passing their heads or fi they played the bugle. They represented the US in the military. Please thank him for his service and his sacrifice for this country.

Europe. Communications line layer. Shot in leg. Survived but was sent home kicking and screaming. Honorably discharged on paper, but he really wanted to stay.

Dad spent most of his time in England. 751st engineer support. It's now called combat sustainment. He didn't go to boot camp. Sarge taught him how to use his weapon on the ship.
