On Friday, President Obama visited Fort Bliss to show support: The President also touched upon the transition out of Afghanistan in his weekly address, and welcomed the opportunity to provide for our veterans by rebuilding at home: “I also told our soldiers at Bliss that part of honoring their service means strengthening the nation they fought so hard to protect. As we turn the page on a decade of war, it’s time to do some nation-building here at home. My grandfather’s generation came back from World War II and helped to form the backbone of the greatest middle-class in history. They helped this country come back stronger than before. Today’s veterans have the skills, the discipline, and the leadership skills to do the exact same thing – and it’s our job to give them that chance.” President Obama’s Weekly Address:Author Richard Bach injured in Wash. plane crash
