I wanted to take the time today to say Thank You to all of the troops who have unfortunately lost their lives in the Armed Forces throughout our history. I have been to Arlington National Cemetery, resting grounds to so many of our brave members of the Armed Forces, and it is a memory that sticks with you forever. Also pictured is a photo of the last known American-born survivor of World War I, according to The Associated Press. Mr. Frank Woodruff Buckles was only 17 when he enlisted in the Army after convincing a captain that he really was 18 and that Missouri did not keep birth records, he is now 107 years young! While he survived the war, and is a great Veteran, today is about remembering those fallen heroes of past, present, and future. God Bless America!
