Veterans Day (November 11, 2026) – A Day to Honor the Soldiers Who Defended Our Rights

Happy Veterans Day to everyone who served.

Many of the people who make this forum what it is are veterans. You swore an oath to defend the Constitution, and a lot of you are still defending it here in NJ long after you took off the uniform. Thank you.

If you’re a vet, drop your branch and years below.

ARMY, 1991-1995

88-94, did some cool stuff and didn’t have a normal career so I’m told..
I currently support our Veterans as the Northeast Regional Coordinator for the WeDefyFoundation, we provide scholarships to GWOT combat disabled Veterans for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu training.
Fact: since 9/11 30k+ Veterans have committed suicide, we lost 7,177 in combat…
If the Mods are ok @NJGF-Admin I have a link that I’d like to post for our Veterans Day fundraiser, if you don’t train Jiu Jitsu you can still support our Vets.
I can go on and on..
Some of us when we were 18/19 were doing keg stands, and some of us were writing a living will..

Thank to all who served who signed that dotted line not that many have, you are the 1% selfless patriots, Deep Bow! You deserve more than a free hamburger today!
