“I rise today to express my profound appreciation for the Take a Veteran to School Day program in my home State of Maine with ceremonies that took place on November 9 and 10 of this year, appropriately right before Veterans Day on November 11. And it is especially fitting that we recognize these events this week as we paused this past Tuesday, on December 7, to remember those who perished 69 years ago at Pearl Harbor, a day that President Franklin Roosevelt declared 'will live in infamy.' First and foremost, I want to extend my enormous gratitude to the Maine National Guard, and especially MG John Libby, Maine's Adjutant General, who not only reached out to our veterans to encourage their engagement in the program, but who also participated in the Rockland District Middle School ceremony. In addition, joining with the Guard in bringing the History Channel's national award-winning program to fruition in Maine was Time Warner Cable, which sponsored the program and should be commended for its example and dedication to this outstanding endeavor.”
