Following the GOP’s midterm wreck, in which the factored significantly, the Trump administration is affirming that loud appreciation for members of our military is politically evergreen. And there’s no better way to demonstrate that gratitude than by reforming the Veterans Administration, to better serve those who have served.

This Veterans Day, President Trump, as well as several high-profile administration officials, will visit Arlington National Cemetery and highlight the stories of brave veteran attendees, including Silver Star recipients, an Army Green Beret, and an aviator in the Vietnam war. Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Secretary of Veterans Affairs Doug Collins will address veterans, active-duty service members, and representatives of veteran service organizations. The service of those who will be present ranges from the European theater of World War II to the mountains of Afghanistan and the rubble of Beirut.
