The College of Westchester contributed to honor and thank our veterans during a ceremony organized by the Stars &amp; Stripes Club. Veterans Day Celebration included the singing of the National Anthem by Ellen Segarra, and opening remarks by Nellie Capellan, Veterans Affairs at CW. During the ceremony attendees enjoyed inspirational words and anecdotes from CW\u2019s Faculty, Staff, and Alumni:<\/span><br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span data-mce-style=\" 16px;\">\u201cAccomplishments are easy for those who set goals.

We\u2019re always soldiers, with and without a uniform. Thank you to my family for their support.\u201d<br \/>\nPedro Ceballos<br \/>\nU.S. Army<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you join the military, you join a family because soldiers are family. But when you come back and you hear \u2018welcome home,\u2019 those words are really strong for us. I\u2019m proud to be a soldier and proud to be a veteran. Instead of saying \u2018thank you for your service,\u2019 I tell you veterans, welcome home.\u201d<br \/>\nJu-Tais Bryant, U.S. Army<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI never regret the day I signed to join the Navy. When you love what you do, it\u2019s not a job, it\u2019s an adventure. I enjoyed my life in service very much.\u201d<br \/>\nRhona Thomas \u2013 U.S. Navy<\/span><\/p><p><span data-mce-style=\" 12.0pt;\">Thanks to Contributors:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-mce-style=\" 12.0pt;\">Brian D.
