I wanted to take a moment to remember the veterans in my family this Veterans Day.
George Schulte, my Great-Grandfather, served in the AEF during World War I.
Leo Schulte, my Grandfather, was on Okinawa and Iwo Jima.
Joe Schulte, my Great Uncle, was killed in a plane crash in Korea.
Deli Huegen, another Great Uncle, was in the jungles of Papua New Guinea.
All of these men have passed on, and not one of them would have considered themselves heroes. I do, however. And I thank all of those Veterans out there, living and dead, who were willing to sacrifice their lives for this country.
