This year brings an added element to the gratitude we owe these men and women. Yesterday, President-elect Barak Obama traveled to the White House to visit and discuss the transition of power with President Bush.
We may dislike the long campaigns and the negative attacks of politics but once again we are watching a transition of power without violence and bloodshed. We are the greatest country on earth - despite our imperfections - because of the protective sacrifices of our Veterans.
Xerox Corporation also sponsors a site that lets you choose a thank you card and send it to a member of the U.S. Armed Services currently overseas. Go to http://www.letssaythanks.com/.
Let today be a reminder that every day we should have a heart of gratitude for our veterans and current members of the military.

Thank You for Your Service
