Today, over three million ser-
vice men and women are stationed
around the globe. Every day, all
night, weekends, holidays...time
does not stop for those who bear
the responsibility of ensuring free-
dom for you and me.
On September 11,2001, terror-
ists hit our nation's tallest buildings,
but they missed America. America
the dream, America, the "one and
indivisible" carries one, even as she
mourns. As Americans reflect on
what makes us who we are, as we
re-examine the meaning of life and
our place in the world, let us not
forget the men and women who
offered the ultimate sacrifices so
that we may ponder such issues.
Throughout the world's history,
our service men and women have
answered the call to ensure free-
dom. As citizens from abroad fled,
our veterans entered...undetered,
relentless, in the never ending battle
for justice and freedom. Why?
Because duty called.
As innocent workers were
coming down from the towers in
New York, police, firefighters, and
EMS were going up. Why? Duty
called.
Today, America is at war. We
are waging war both at home and
abroad in a struggle to m aintain our
very way of life. A way of life
given to us by those we honor on
this Sunday...our Veterans. Today
the battle continues and new he-
roes are bom as they fight to keep
what was earned by heroes of past.
We can offer no greater tribute
to our veterans than to adopt the
same attitude of sacrifice, dedica-
tion and patriotism we associate
with their service to our country.
Let each of us leam from the
police and firefighters who answer
the call when our neighbors cry
for help. Let us learn from our
health care and emergency person-
nel who reach out with a helping
hand during both the birth of new
life and the passing of another,
those who deliver our mail even in
the face of bio-terrorism, the
teacher dedicated to enriching the
minds of our children. Moms,
dads...all Americans must answer
the challenge. Why? Because duty
calls.
We must once again heed the
words of JFK, "Ask not what your
country can do for you, but what
you can do for your country." We
must focus less on rights, and more
on responsibilities.
We have been called to return
on "normalcy," a return to nor-
malcy does not mean a return to
complacency. As we honor our
veterans, let us honor them in a
way which reminds them of the
very reason they were willing to
give life, limb and blood.
Normal needs to be homes,
businesses, barns and fences
adorned with Old Glory. Normal
needs to be standing up for what
you believe in. Normal needs to
mean not being so reserved in ex-
pression of faith and beliefs. Nor-
mal needs to mean a nation of
people full of pride and resolve to
be all we can be. On this
Veteran's Day, honor our veter-
ans by reminding them of that
which makes us uniquely Ameri-
can.— Todd Staples
