Today we honor the roughly 25 million military veterans that have served in the United States military. For many this might mean the mail won’t come in today, or perhaps you have a break from school or work, but by-in-large the holiday goes unnoticed by those outside of civic service. You don’t have to agree with the politics behind the use of our military, but the support of the individuals who comprise our armed forces should be an issue without partisanship.

Take for example US Army Private First Class Jacob Peterson, who was able to return from the war in Afghanistan for only one week this entire year. Waiting for him when he arrived was the 2011 Fischer MRX that he had ordered, which Fischer Motorcycles tell us the PFC has already clocked 1,200 miles on in his short duration back with his family and friends.
