Veterans Day History & Thanks!!!

Veterans Day is an official United States holiday honoring armed service veterans. It is a federal holiday that is observed on November 11th. U.S. President Woodrow Wilson first proclaimed Armistice Day (Veterans Day) for November 11, 1919. On June 1, 1954, Congress replaced “Armistice” with “Veterans,” and it has been known as Veterans Day since. For more information on the History of Veterans Day click here

Thanks to ALL who protect and have defended our great country. The citizens of the United States of America have the opportunity to achieve whatever they put their mind to because of you!!! Thank you!!!

Igniting America …

One of the largest motivational/ inspirational websites in the world, emailed us to see if they could use our words/ writing from our Wednesday Morning email blast (see below) on their site!!! Nice!!!

Whether Your Candidate Won or Lost …
America doesn’t go down the tubes or prosper because of a President. It works off the spirit of the people!!! The President can’t fix the damage of Hurricane Sandy, only the people can. The President didn’t fix the damage of Katrina, the people did!!! The President can’t change laziness, disrespect, generations of of spoiled brats, feeling of entitlement, taking the benefits of our great country for granted, only the people can!!! I need to count on myself. You need to count on yourself. We need to give our best efforts everyday!!! Enough of the babying and BS already, our country/ the world needs us!!!
C’mon people, let’s get to it!!!
