“I also thank the volunteers of Homefront Heroes for helping the military community in its time of need. Exhibit 1 Whereas our Active Duty Military National Guard and Colorado Reserves men and women have answered the call to protect America from harm. These Service men and women have been deployed around the world, protecting the freedoms we often take for granted at home. Whereas these men and women now fight a war on terrorism, they fight this war with the same pride for Country, Honor and Courage as our forefathers. Whereas our military families have also sacrificed during this same time of war while their loved ones have been deployed. Whereas our military has always protected our Great Nation and we have always honored our service men and women after they have returned, allowing our service men and women to know that we in Colorado support them during their time of active duty and we appreciate what they have endured and sacrificed. Whereas Colorado honors the past, supports the present, and encourages the future of our military men and women. Whereas The yellow ribbon has come to be recognized as signifying Honor, Courage, and Hope for military families and loved ones.”
