If you wanted to shake the hand of every single military veteran in Illinois (a fine idea), how many times would you extend a handshake on Veterans Day?
It's bad enough learning that the men and women who most deserve our respect are being targeted by scam artists. It's worse knowing that this sort of thing is drawing attention on Veterans Day.
November 11 is the day to honor the brave and women who have, and still serve our great country, and a TON of local businesses and restaurants are serving up free meals and big discounts today to Vets in honor of Veterans Day.
