GUEST COMMENTARY: On Veterans Day, remember sacrifices, cemeteries and soldiers

With Veterans Day almost here, it is time to remember and honor those men and women who have sacrificed for their country. Over a decade ago, Steven Spielberg’s wonderful, horrific, touching movie “Saving Private Ryan” awakened thousands of people to what war is really like. With that in mind, hopefully this year on Veterans Day people will not just rue it as an inconvenient day when banks and post offices are closed or rejoice in it as a paid holiday, but will actually think about our veterans and our history.
