In honor of Veteran's Day, Jennie and Dianne sit down with the executive director of Wreaths Across America, Karen Worcester, to learn how a serendipitous mistake led to National Wreaths Across America Day, and the mission to Remember, Honor and Teach by coordinating wreath-laying ceremonies at Arlington National Cemetery, as well as at more than 3,400 additional locations in all 50 U.S. states, at sea and abroad.  In many homes, there is an empty seat for one who is serving or one who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. From the Revolutionary War to present day conflicts, Ordinary Extraordinary veterans are devoted sons and daughters, fathers and mothers, sisters and brothers. They come from all backgrounds in life to place those lives on the line for our freedoms. There are millions of individual stories to tell and that is what Wreaths Across America devotes time and energy to not only during the holidays but year round.
