33 years after his parents came to America, my father filed his draft card. A year later, he joined the Army Air Corps to do his part to defeat fascism and preserve democracy. Thanks to all who’ve done the same, whatever your background, serving the country we love. #VeteransDay pic.twitter.com/Qgfi9vEzpX

It's important to have perspective. To take a minute to appreciate how good we actually have it. And we have only our Veterans to thank for that. #HappyVeteransDay pic.twitter.com/3NF69PPqe8

Wishing a Happy Veterans Day to all who served. A special shoutout to my grandpa Joe Cassel, who was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross for his valiant actions in the European Theatre during WWII, and my grandpa @USArmy veteran James Brennan still going strong at 98. pic.twitter.com/k84tTFbTnr
