In this issue, we call upon all of
our readers to join us in offering
our gratitude to all branches of
the Armed Forces who protect
and serve America today as well
as those veterans whose years of
guarding our nation have come
to a close. For their selflessness,
words are not enough. To the
family members who stand
beside them, we also extend
our thanks—without you to
keep the home front strong and
their morale rallied, our service
members would feel the full
burden of the battle lines. In as
much as we can, and in as many
ways that we can, we hope that
