A Message from President George W. Bush on Veterans Day 2021

We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your service to this nation and your continued contributions to our country.

President Bush: 

Happy Veterans Day. Laura and I are proud to join our fellow Americans in saluting the brave men and women who have worn the uniform of the United States.

We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your service to this Nation and your continued contributions to our country. We owe each of you that have served a lifelong debt of gratitude. The cause you pursued at the call of duty is the noblest America has to offer. You have shielded your fellow citizens from danger. You have defended the beliefs of your country and advanced the rights of the downtrodden. You have been the face of hope and mercy in dark places and a force for good in the world.

Nothing that has followed – nothing – can tarnish your honor or diminish your accomplishments. To you, our country is forever grateful. May God bless you and your families.
