Veterans Day 2014
Bill Smith (Major - USAF Retired), Editor: I and the contributors to the ARRA News Service thank and wish all veterans and active duty military a blessed day.
Today, I recall my fellow comrades, alive and dead, whom I served with. I had the pleasure of not only serving for 22 Years in the Air Force being commissioned an officer with 5 of those years being enlisted. I served 3 of those years on a joint assignment with the U.S. Army. As a senior DOD instructor in acquisitions, I instructed members of all the services. After retiring, I had the pleasure of both meeting and teaching active duty members of all the services on their bases and posts. Today, I also recall the services of my two fathers and my father-in-law who served in WWII and Korea, and of my son, Brian, who served as an Air Force officer and now works as a civilian with the USAF.
God Bless the men and women who are alive and have served and who are serving the United States of America.
