Thank you Dad, for always being there for me and for our family. Every deployment and every day. No veteran serves alone — and you always have our back, and the back of all veterans. Love you!

Lt. John and Joe Kennedy in their naval uniforms. My Uncle Joe was the eldest of my father’s nine brothers and sisters. He played football and rugby at Harvard and served as a delegate to the 1938 Democratic Convention. He intended to run for Congress from Massachusetts in 1946. He left Harvard Law School in June 1941 to join the Naval Air Corps as an aviator, flying 25 bombing missions from Suffolk Field in Britain. Just before his discharge, he volunteered for a top-secret and high-risk mission intended to destroy the Nazis’ North Sea U-boat pens near Heligoland by striking them with a radio-controlled B-24 bomb plane loaded with high explosives. Lt. Kennedy’s assignment was to pilot the plane to 2,500 feet, arm the detonators, and parachute out after switching to remote control and turning the steering over to radio pilots in a pursuit plane. His bomber exploded in midair moments after Joe switched to remote. My grandfather, Joseph Kennedy, never recovered from his son’s death. Thirty years later, Grandpa would weep at the mention of Joe’s name. Let’s all spend some moments today remembering those who serve our country.
God Bless the American Soldier 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸. We Appreciate Your Service.

On the eleventh hour, of the eleventh day, of the eleventh month of 1918, the guns of Europe fell silent. American doughboys seized victory on the continent.
Armistice Day.
But the War to End All Wars did not end them.
Just a generation later, 16 million Americans answered the call to free the world from Axis tyranny.
Millions more stood to beat back communism on the Korean Peninsula a few short years after.
And so the observance and honors of November 11th grew to all who had served and sacrificed for this great country.
Veterans Day.
From Chosin to Khe Sanh, from Fallujah to Kabul, and from the home front to far-flung corners of the world, courageous Americans have worked and fought and sacrificed to defend our nation for 250 years.
To those who have served, from Utah and across the United States, thank you.
Happy Veterans Day! 🇺🇸
To our nation's veterans: Thank you for your service, thank you for your sacrifice, and thank you for making us proud every single day.
