A Labor of Love for Liberty

Taking some much-needed time off after a three-year project — the National Medal of Honor Heritage Center.

Mark Alexander

Patriots, after a lot of hard work by our dedicated Medal of Honor team, we opened the doors of the National Medal of Honor Heritage Center last weekend.

For three years, this project has been my second job, and like The Patriot Post, a labor of love for Liberty. The opportunity to join with many fellow Patriots to honor the extraordinary service and sacrifice of these recipients was humbling, and the veteran recognition and educational mission of the Heritage Center dovetails with that of The Patriot Post.

This week I am taking a few much-needed days away with Ann, traveling to our favorite old B&B tucked away in the Smoky Mountains to celebrate our 30th anniversary.

Standing watch for me today is our columnist Rebecca Hagelin and her latest analysis, “Parents Organize to Fight Back” on the well-being of children and who makes those decisions.

As always, the nation’s best commentary and analysis is on The Patriot Post’s Right Opinion page and our homepage, guaranteed ad-free — zero advertising clutter!
