Senator Berryhill cited several other veterans from the area, and their stories. His retelling of their stories is posted in his blog here.
He concludes with detailed information on how to contact various Veteran services. He says, “For On this Veteran’s Day – and any other day — please remember to thank a veteran for the service he or she gave us all.
