Congressman Lamborn’s Veterans Day Statement

Washington, Nov 10, 2008 -

"On Tuesday, I will join my fellow Americans in honoring our nation’s many brave veterans. As a proud son of a veteran and father of another, words cannot fully express the gratitude I have for those who have faithfully and honorably served our nation in times of peace and war.


"Military service is challenging and veterans and their families sacrifice so much to protect our country. Colorado’s Fifth Congressional District is home to more than 100,000 of those veterans and their families and we thank them for their service. This is a day to remember those who have given their time to serve and protect others.

"Additionally, I hope you will join me in praying for the safety of our servicemen and women in harm’s way as they fight to support and defend freedom around the world." – Congressman Doug Lamborn (CO-05)
