Veterans ~ Thank you for making our homeland safe and free!

          You Are Remembered

  You’re always remembered
  For we can never forget -
  Your courage and sacrifice
  So that others can live -
  With hope and without fear.
  Know on this day
  And all days,
  You are remembered.

Many Americans mistakenly believe that Veterans Day is the day America sets aside to honor American military personnel who died in battle or as a result of wounds sustained from combat. That's not quite true. Memorial Day is the day set aside to honor America's war dead.

Veterans Day, on the other hand, honors ALL American veterans, both living and dead. In fact, Veterans Day is largely intended to thank LIVING veterans for dedicated and loyal service to their country.

The Bangor Community Fire Department would like to send our most heartfelt THANK YOU to "our" Veterans that are currently serving on the fire board as well as past and present members of the fire department.
