November 11 marks a day to honor the men and women who have served in our nation's military. As you go about your weekend plans, please take a moment to remember that it is through their service and sacrifice that our country remains safe and free.

DID YOU KNOW: Veterans Day has no apostrophe - it's not a day that 'belongs' to veterans but includes and honors all veterans (plural).
