			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At the Pat Tillman Foundation, we honor our nation&#8217;s active and veteran  servicemembers and their families on a daily basis. And each November,  as communities throughout the country gather to recognize Veterans Day,  it provides a unique opportunity to highlight Foundation activities,  Tillman Military Scholar recognitions and Scholar-led service. Yesterday  marked the end of two weeks of activities as three University of  Maryland Tillman Military Scholars participated in the honoring of all  active and veteran servicemembers and military families through their  participation in a video played during the Maryland vs. Florida State  game. At the same time, all nine current Tillman Military Scholars at  Mississippi State University were joined by Pat Tillman Foundation  Director of Programs Hunter I Riley for an on-field recognition during  the first half of their football game versus other partner institution  University of Arkansas.</p>
