Feszt Success: Czech
A Veteran
A veteran - whether active duty, retired, National Guard, or Reserve -
is someone who, at one point in his or her life, wrote a blank check made payable to “The United States of America,” for an amount of “up to and including my life.”
That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it. —Author Unknown
World War II Veteran Evan Barta of Lodge 202, Jourdanton proudly presented the colors and led the Pledge of Allegiance at the November meeting. FAC Mary Ann Barta read the above poem honoring all veterans.
