Wherever they are this year, our boys in the service will remember all the things that make up an American Thanksgiving. These are the ideals that they are fighting to preserve . . . these are the traditions you and all of us here at home are privileged to keep alive and untarnished through unsettled wartime years. You'll observe the day with a truly thankful heart despite the empty places at your table . . . if you'll remember that it would be far worse to live a life empty of the American ways that we believe worth fighting for.
