The Facebook and Zynga Blog: Notice To All Veteran Here In The United States

Veteran Day is upon us once again. It is a time we all take to remember the great sacrifices that our current Veterans as well as all the past war veterans have made to keep us safe in the world. These sacrifices were not just by them by by their entire family. For this ALL Americans salute you and pray for you all.

The sacrifices the Veteran's and their families have made since the inception of our great country can never properly be repaid or truly even be comprehended. Their selfless acts of heroism can never be measured and should never be forgotten. What they have gone through for all of us can never be repaid.

Below is a small list of some things we can do for you and your families. As I said we can never fully repay you all for your sacrifices you have made for us but we hope you will help your self to these offers.

You have put yourselves in harms way more times than we will ever know. If not for you the VETERAN'S of this fine country we would not be enjoying all the freedoms we have right now. Americans very easily forget that Freedom isn't Free & that someone has to pay for it, someone has to fight for it and unfortunately sometimes someone has to die to preserve it. Sometimes we lose site of this and for this I apologize.

I just want to say on behalf of this great country & the American people God Bless You All and God Bless Your Families. The sacrifices you have made and continue to make for us all will never be forgotten. You are all heroes in our eyes and we truly appreciate all that you have done for us throughout history and going forward. God Speed my friends we are always here for you & Thank You !!!
