This Is Why We Stand Veterans Day Show

As Americans, we have so very much to be grateful for. Let us never forget that we owe all of the great freedoms we enjoy to the generations of American veterans who have always stood firm, answering the call to serve whenever and wherever our country has needed them. To all who have served and sacrificed, we can never express our gratitude enough. Just as our veterans have always been there for us, we too must always be there to support them.

It has been the greatest honor of my life getting to meet and share the stories of many of the incredible veterans who have dedicated themselves to our country. Whether in a frigid foxhole in Bastogne, Belgium during the Battle of the Bulge of the Second World War or surrounded by the enemy in a relentless firefight deep in the jungles of Vietnam, the tales of selflessness and bravery that I have heard makes it clear that our nation will never fail because of the special American spirt displayed by and sustained by our veterans. I'm eternally grateful to all who have dedicated themselves to our country and I will never cease doing everything in my power to provide a platform for those who have served to share their stories.

In honor of Veterans Day, I hope you enjoy these two interviews from the latest episode of This Is Why We Stand. On this special program, World War II veteran Frank Bellantoni and Vietnam War veteran Thomas Giori joined me to talk about their service and what Veterans Day means to them.
