APPROPRIATE TRIBUTE TO THE MEN AND WOMEN WHO PUT THEIR LIVES

WE SALUTE THEM FOR THEIR PART IN THE PRESERVATION OF FREEDOM
AND HONOR THEM FOR THEIR COURAGE AND DEVOTION TO COUNTRY.

I ASK ALL AMERICANS TO PAUSE TODAY IN TRI BUTE
TO THE PRICELESS CONTRIBUTION OF ALL VETERANS -- AND

MIGHT LIVE.

THEY HAVE SECURED FOR ALL AMERICANS.
