November 11th is Veteran’s Day, recognized as a day to pay tribute to and honor all American military personnel who served our country in the Armed Forces. You are encouraged to attend Veteran’s Day services, traditionally held on the courthouse lawn in Prince Frederick, to show your appreciation for the sacrifice made by our veterans to maintain the freedom Americans enjoy today. Remember that freedom is not free. Our veterans have paid the price of freedom and we owe them a debt of gratitude.
