Welcome to the Friday’s Food for Thought post from got geoint? On November 11th, we honor the brave soldiers who have served our nation in peace and in war and have paid the ultimate sacrifice in the defense of our freedom. This week, we have compiled our top choices of Veterans Day videos that are on the web to serve as a reminder of just how important our soldiers are to the safety and security of our great nation.

National Veterans Day Ceremony
The Veterans Day National Ceremony is held each year on November 11th at Arlington National Cemetery. The ceremony commences precisely at 11:00 a.m. with a wreath laying at the Tomb of the Unknowns and continues inside the Memorial Amphitheater with a parade of colors by veterans’ organizations and remarks from dignitaries. The ceremony is intended to honor and thank all who served in the United States Armed Forces. Check out this video provided by the Department of Veteran Affairs about Veterans Day:
