Today, on this Veteran's Day, I urge every American to read the essay by Carleton Jones, Jr., a veteran of the Cold War and Vietnam. I have never met the man. I have also never read such a well-written, succinct statement of what it means to be an American. The essay is posted as part of a tribute to veterans here.
Happy Veterans Day. Today is Tuesday, Nov. 11. Today's birthdays include comedian Jonathan Winters who turns 83 and actress Demi Moore who turns 46. Our picture of the day is a disturbing look at the pursuit of beauty.
This week, America pauses to honor the men and women who have served so bravely and selflessly to guarantee all Americans enjoy the rights and freedoms our founders imagined.
