On November 14th, 2010, CSEA Region Six hosted its annual Veterans Day Ceremony at the Naval and Military Park in downtown Buffalo.

The event honors all veterans in the U.S. and the deceased members of the Region Six Unit.

Members presented a wreath and family members threw flowers into the water in remembrance of fallen soldiers.

Nick Paolini of CSEA Region 6 Veterans Committee said, "Veterans are the ones who made this country what it is today. If it wasn't for veterans we wouldn't have the prosperity and the economy that we have today and this country would never have been a major power."

Because of You, Unknown Soldier

By Courtney Tanabe

 

 

Because of you, I am here

Because of you, I am able to live freely

 

Yet I do not know you

And I have not done anything for you

 

But there you stand, ready to fight

And there you are prepared to die

For me

 

You've fought before

And you'll fight again

For someone you don't know

 

So thank you Unknown Soldier

Fighting for me

 

I'm here because of you

And I owe my future to you

Freedom is not Free

by Ashley Persyn

 

There is a price we pay for freedom

For it is not truly free

But rather paid for by the contributions of veterans

To buy our liberty

 

As their blood drains from their body and runs like a river through the grass

Over the years it's forgotten, war is placed in our past

I don't think we all realize the importance veterans play

as they voluntarily serve America each and every day

 

We should honor the veterans for they act like a shield

Protecting us from danger, keeping America healed.

So if you would take a second to commemorate

You will instantly see

We owe veterans our gratitude

For they are the reason we are free
