Commander's Comments

Dear friends,

This is simply a notion l’d like to share with you ... I recall my dad once saying to me, “ i don’t have to be a genius, all i have to have is just one good idea”.

To me, this stands as a vivid wonderful expression of what American is all about. The notion that with one great idea you as a individual and as an American, can manifest your own creativity, perhaps your own destiny. Our country affords this advantage for all, no doubt this is the reason why the millions of immigrants flocked to our shores.

This kind of freedom accounts for our countries dynamics in an array of venues, the humanities, business, medical, and a host of other persuades; this mosaic, this kaleidoscope of ideas makes up the fabric of our American dream, most worthy of protecting and embracing.

Hence, it’s been our vets who have protected these rights, and continue to do so.
