But our military people shouldn’t have this worry in the performance of their duties to our nation.

On this Veterans’ Day, I’d like to share a quote from a speech that I gave at Arlington National Cemetery on Nov. 11, 1989.
“The nation owes a great debt to its veterans, whose service to the nation spans every decade, every year, every day of our country's existence.

America's veterans have been there.”
We have 20 million living veterans. I am proud to be one.
