What Veterans Day Means To Me To me, it is a time to remember the men and women of the United States Armed Forces. They do not ask for any special recognition, yet they put their lives on the line for our freedoms. For over 200 years the liberty bell continues to ring because of those special people who believed in Duty, Honor and Country.
