Capito Remembers Veterans Day
WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Shelley Moore Capito (R-W.Va.) released the following statement in remembrance of Veterans Day. “This year, as we celebrate America’s 250 th birthday, it is an opportunity to give thanks to the West Virginians who have served our country. From the Greatest Generation—like Woody Williams and my father, former West Virginia Governor Arch Moore, Jr.—to younger soldiers who have fought in Iraq and Afghanistan and are serving this very day we offer our gratitude. Today and every day, I am thankful for the service of the men and women of our armed forces, their families, and the sacrifices they have made on behalf of liberty and freedom—both at home and abroad. Because of them, West Virginians are free.” # # #
