Salute to Veterans
Friday's show wasn't the first time we've done a special piece for Veterans Day. When searching our library for the World War I and World War II footage that we used in the Fast Facts, I came across a report we filed back in 2003.
However, this was the first time we asked you to contribute to Veterans Day through I-Reports. And I thought the material you sent in was excellent. They not only gave you the chance to be featured on our program; they added a personal touch from you that lets the nation's veterans see they have support across the board.
I'm sure Mr. Bohannan, Mr. Nadjowski, and Mr. Gerhardt are proud. We're certainly proud of them, and I'm proud of you.
I'm glad CNN decided to honor our veterans. CNN covers the whole country, and therefore, can reach out to almost all the veterans. I know they like being thanked and reminded how appreciated they are. We owe a lot to them, and this special is just one of the ways we show our appreciation. It doens't even have to be Veteran's Day for someone to show their respect and appreciation for a veteran in his or her neighborhood.
I really think that the salute to vertans was a very nice thing to do. Keep it up cnn!
My class would also like to add that we enjoyed the Veteran's show and feel that it was a very honorable thing to do.
I would also like to send a SHOUTOUT! to all the Dutch Fork teachers!
I liked your blog. i was going to do the i-report, i didnt have a camera or a vidoe camera. I'm going to join the army when i grow up. i want to protect the state.

No,I couldn't live without tv ,because my man clark kent on smallville was in the middle of a fight with a phantom! Also a new season of one treehill is coming in january 8 ,2008 and Im SO EXCITED! I might do something else than watch tv like play outside. My opinion was no I cannot live without tv.
I am in the class that has been emailing Mr. Gerhardt. I think it is great that you people at CNN did something to honor the veterans. Most of the people in my family are veteran’s thanks for doing that show. Carl Azuz is awesome!
