Thank You To Our Veterans!

All of us at Marked by Imagination would like to take a moment to say a special thank you to all of the men and women who currently serve or have ever served in the United States military.

We owe these men and women a debt of gratitude and our deepest respect for the sacrifices that they and their families make on our behalf. All too often we forget the price that has been and continues to be paid for the preservation of our liberties and freedom.

George Washington once said "The willingness with which our young people are likely to serve in any war, no matter how justified, shall be directly proportional as to how they perceive the Veterans of earlier wars were treated and appreciated by their country."

Please take a moment today to thank a veteran...

These coins pay tribute to all the fearless men and women who have served America's Army National Guard with pride and the courageous service of U.S. Army Reserve soldiers as they carry out their mission to provide critical combat support in the defense of America's freedom.
