Today's holiday: Thank a Vet

Today's Veterans Day, so the Courts are closed.
Be sure to thank those you know who served in the armed forces today ... including appellate justices who note their service on their online profiles, such as:

Justice Ming Chin, U.S. Army, Captain (1967-1969), who earned an Army Commendation Medal (Quang Tri, Vietnam 1969) and a Bronze Star (Long Binh, Vietnam, 1969).
or
Justice Art McKinster, also an Army Captain,
or
Justice Paul Turner, who served in the Army and Army National Guard,
or
Charles Poochigian, who served in the Air National Guard,
or
Justice Eileen Moore, who served as a combat nurse in Vietnam and is a member of Vietnam Veterans of America.

LACBA's Veterans Legal Services Project also provides a way to thank a vet here.
