Friends,

It was a privilege to stand at City Hall and present a proclamation in honor of the 249th birthday of the United States Marine Corps. This moment held personal significance for me as the proud son of a Marine who served honorably in Vietnam. I know firsthand the sacrifices Marines make, not only through their service but also through the unwavering support of their families.

Today, as we celebrate Veterans Day, I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to all who have served in our country’s armed forces. Your courage, dedication, and sacrifices have safeguarded our freedoms and strengthened our nation. We are forever grateful for each of you.

Thank you for your service and for upholding the values that make our country strong. Please see the event video below.

Together we will!

Edward Pollard
