Darius Rucker was right. Just saying \u201cthank you\u201d is not enough. But this Veterans Day, there\u2019s a glimmer of hope that with almost all of country music coming out to say it together on social media, the veterans who served our country felt the gratitude in that magnitude on Monday (Nov. 11).<\/p>\n

Luke Combs, for example, wanted veterans to know that their service does not go unnoticed. Toby Keith said thanks to the men and women who have served this beautiful country. Justin Moore created a special video of \u201cThe Ones That Didn\u2019t Make It Back Home,\u201d including both of his grandfathers who served. And George Strait dedicated his \u201cThe Weight Of The Badge\u201d to all the veterans.<\/p>\n
