State Sen. Mary Kiffmeyer (R-Big Lake) took time near the Veterans Day holiday on Nov. 11 to personally salute the estimated 370,000 veterans that now call the state home.
“Veterans are some of the strongest members of our society and I am proud of all who have served and the families that support them in their service,” Kiffmeyer said in a press release. “Every day, I am thankful for their courage and all they have done to protect this great nation, but even more so on Veterans Day.”
Kiffmeyer suggested others join her in paying homage and giving thanks to soldiers everywhere.
“It is my sincere hope that everyone is thankful and will express their thankfulness to those among us who have sacrificed so much in service to our country,” she added. “Today, there are over 20 million veterans nationwide and to all of them I want to say, thank you for your service."
