00:00.360 --> 00:02.638
As we gather to celebrate Veterans Day .

00:02.638 --> 00:04.860
This year , I want to talk a little bit

00:04.860 --> 00:06.693
about the history . Veterans Day

00:06.693 --> 00:08.582
started as Armistice Day . It was

00:08.582 --> 00:10.749
supposed to signify the end of the war

00:10.749 --> 00:12.804
to end all wars . We all know that's

00:12.804 --> 00:14.916
obviously not true . No generation of

00:14.916 --> 00:16.860
Americans has ever been spared the

00:16.860 --> 00:18.860
burden of responsibility of serving

00:18.860 --> 00:20.971
this great nation . And I just wanted

00:20.971 --> 00:23.027
you to know from the boss and I , we

00:23.027 --> 00:25.193
are proud to serve with you and we are

00:25.193 --> 00:27.249
proud to be known as fellow veterans

00:27.249 --> 00:27.030
for Chief Becker . And I , this is a

00:27.040 --> 00:29.700
family business and whether you are

00:29.709 --> 00:31.931
another airman in a long line of airmen

00:31.931 --> 00:34.153
in your families or you're the first to

00:34.153 --> 00:36.098
serve in your family . Thank you .

00:36.098 --> 00:38.209
Thank you for serving . Thank you for

00:38.209 --> 00:38.080
being a part of this amazing team .

00:38.090 --> 00:40.368
What I would ask is that you take that .

00:40.368 --> 00:42.423
Thank you from me and Chief Becker .

00:42.423 --> 00:44.646
And you look and find another veteran .

00:44.646 --> 00:46.868
Maybe it's somebody you're serving with

00:46.868 --> 00:46.150
today , maybe it's somebody you've

00:46.159 --> 00:48.103
known has served in the past , but

00:48.103 --> 00:50.159
shake their hand and tell them thank

00:50.159 --> 00:52.381
you for all they are doing and all they

00:52.381 --> 00:53.250
have done rescue and attack .
