Colin Powell, Secretary of State, General U.S. Army (Ret.)

"I want to express my warmest admiration to one of our great state universities for creating a memorial and setting aside a day to honor its veterans of all our wars, international crises, and peace keeping causes. This tribute by the University at Albany could well be emulated on campuses all over the country as a way to say thanks to their alumni who answered our country's call."
