its a way to say thank you to our military.
I'm going to help you out here.
I was in the military. And, if you asked any random group of 100 Soldiers, 99 would say, "ya wanna thank me?............well, we can start by not ADDING work to me.........making me travel to DC away from my family........and marching 5 miles...........a 4 day weekend is thanks enough".
