Charleston Honors our Heroes on Veterans Day with Great Deals to say Thank You

“The veterans of our military services have put their lives on the line to protect the freedoms that we enjoy. They have dedicated their lives to their country and deserve to be recognized for their commitment.” – Judd Gregg

Veterans Day is a day of reflection; a day we honor those that have given the ultimate gift of generosity by protecting our freedoms.  It is a day of conversation to share stories of honor, strength and bravery.  It is a day to just say thank you to those that have worn the uniform of courage.

In Charleston, the importance of our military in preparation, defense and homestead is so important to our culture that it is no surprise that the community has banded together to offer some wonderful opportunities to our active military and veterans as a way of saying a humbled and respectful thank you.
