11th Day in Observance Veterans Day Long before there this land was ever referred to as America, the Chiefs-War Chiefs-Warriors-and Braves of many Nations stood their ground upon this great land, and were considered the Nations last line of defense. There came a day that the women were forced to stand up as well in order to protect the men by watching their back, and they were known as warrior women. The Warriors of many Nations have fought in all wars here on this land against encroachment, and fought in unity with our friends and allies of the United States of America in foreign wars across the great waters they call the pond, and our people have been acknowledged as being partly responsible for helping to win wars due to our code talking. But it would not be appropriate to honor just one or a few great warriors known throughout history, so today we honor ALL of our Veterans those known and not known to us who fought for peace, to secure the safety and sanctuary of their families back home. Some of them may have been scared to leave knowing that they might never return home to their families, nevertheless they did what had to be done, and some fought bravely-courageously and in the eyes of the people some of them became heroes. Remembering the words of wisdom, of a Veteran who served his people and lived to tell the story, “Let us not become what we are fighting against”. With this we remember ALL of our Veterans who served their Indian Country, Tribe, Nation, Band, Pueblo, and also served along side with their allies to protect this land as a whole. We honor you today, and we honor the fallen warriors who gave their lives, and those who are still serving today we salute you, and pray that you will be strong, bold and brave, have protection and direction, and be able to return home safely to your family, and then be able to live in peace. Peace To All Our Relations
