From Think Progress (http://thinkprogress.org/2007/05/18/commemorating-armed-forces-day/):
It’s worth noting that President Bush’s threat to veto a 3.5 percent pay raise (http://thinkprogress.org/2007/05/17/bush-military-veto/) for U.S. soldiers fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan came just two days before Armed Forces Day, the “single holiday for citizens to come together and thank our military members (http://www.defenselink.mil/afd/) for their patriotic service in support of our country.”
