Published: Nov 11, 2021
St. Thomasâ€â€On this Veterans Day, the members and staff of the 34th Legislature join the nation in honoring and celebrating the men and women who have answered the call to duty to serve as a member of the United States Armed Forces.
We are reminded every Veterans Day, that there is a price to the freedom we sometimes take for granted and that price is paid by the brave men and women in our armed forces. The courage and bravery of our veterans must be applauded. In observance of Veterans Day, Senate President Donna A. Frett-Gregory said, “There are veterans in every neighborhood of our territory, let us thank them, not just today but for tomorrows to come. For it is because of them, that we can live the life we live.â€Â
Veterans Day activities will take place tomorrow on St. Croix and St. Thomas. “This Veterans Day, we pause and say thank you, thank you for your selflessness, thank you for your service,†concluded Senate President Frett-Gregory.
