On March 4, we not only mark a date on the calendar but also embody a military command: march forth! Hence, it's fitting that this day is dedicated to honoring the men and women in uniform through National G.I. Day. The term "G.I." has been synonymous with U.S. military personnel, encompassing the Army, Air Force, and Marines since 1940. Today is a special occasion to express our gratitude for their service, whether through a heartfelt embrace, be it physical or symbolic.
