Why do you do it?

Communities, and society writing large, require civic-minded citizens to lead the way and keep Americanism at the forefront. Given their tenacity and grit, Veterans naturally fit that roll.I serve Veterans, Natives, and Scouts because each represent me, the allure of Americana and our exceptionalism as a nation.
