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
