It's a day we recognize the men and women who have served and are serving our country... Veterans have made numerous contributions to our state by serving at home and abroad. Under the most difficult circumstances they have made and are still making sacrifices for us. Many people gathered at the Heritage Center on the Capitol grounds this morning to honor the heroes we have lost and honor the current generation who are stepping up to carry on our country's proud tradition of service. Veterans explain what today means to them... (Eldor Miller/ Veteran) "I would have to go back to the memorial and when we got ot that long wall with all of the stars on it and they told us there was 4000 stars and each star represented one hundred service men that dies that got to me. " (Herbert Wilson/ Veteran) "The day I say is more of a remembrance however my dad served in World War One and he always speaks of it as armistice the war to end wars and he didnt feel there was going to be war anymore." We'll have much more on Veterans Day in our later news...  « Less
