WATCH: VP Vance urges Americans to honor veterans: "If we want to keep on ensuring that the very best and brightest sign up for our military, the very best way to do it is to make sure that the veterans know that we are grateful to them." | Fox News

On Veterans Day, we honor the brave individuals who have served our country. We’re revisiting the story of Staff Sgt.

His mother, Ida Carson, became his caregiver and strongest advocate. As an Elizabeth Dole Foundation fellow, she now works tirelessly to ensure veterans, their families, and friends have access to the resources and support they need. | AARP
