Veterans' Day



On my first Veterans' Day as a federal employee (meaning this is the first time I had the day off of work) and, coincidentally, the first Veterans' Day since my father (a Vietnam Veteran) died, I attended the Veterans' Day Observance at the Vietnam Veterans' Memorial Wall in DC. It was a moving enough experience to walk the length of the mall on Veterans' Day, and the ceremony itself was touching, respectful, and inspiring.
