Happy Veterans Day



I salute our Veterans. Without them, our lives would not be the same.


Much respect is due to them. Much more than what could possibly be given in one day.


In honor of all women and men who have dedicated their lives to this nation, I’d like to share the inspiring story of First Lieutenant Vernon J. Baker, US Army. He was the only living African American World War II hero to receive the Medal of Honor, awarded to him by President Clinton on January 13, 1997.



First Lieutenant Baker is only one of millions of people who have devoted their lives to protecting ours. Let us never forget.
Tumultuously Yours,
Dark & Stormy
