For years I have called my father on Veteran's Day to tell him thank you. In 2007, I and my siblings (there are six of us) took Daddy to Washington DC over the Veteran's Day Weekend to see the World War II Memorial. He had served as a pilot in the Army Air Corps. It was an amazingly special weekend for all of us and one we will always cherish. If your parent is veteran, make plans to go with them to Washington DC and visit his/her memorial to their service to our country. Don't wait--especially if they are a WWII vet. It is time and money you will never regret spending and time is running out to do this. Take your children if you can and let your parent tell them his/her stories about their time in the service.
