Happy Veterans Day to all our soldiers near and far, those that have risked their lives to keep us safe, came about with bravery, honor and loyalty. We commend you with great honor and highest respect.

I was watching the World War series events on History Channel, where they had the live footages of the astrocities of war.. there was a Veteran from the US fighting a war in another country who made a comment he said..
"Here i am in this land where the bombs drop a dime a dozen, I'm here from a land that has never had one bomb drop upon us, I'm a United States Marine".. thats something to be proud of..

From my grandpa, who chased Pancho Villa and fought in both world wars, to my dad, who played clarinet in the Navy band, to my uncle, who navigated a B-52 bomber in Vietnam, and my father-in-law, a helicopter pilot in Vietnam who died 3 months before his son was born, and my brother, retired from the air force - to all the soldiers who have fought for my freedom.  Thank you!

                           Heroes


In war, there are lives risked and lives taken

Men and women giving their best to defend what they love

They defend their country

Their honor

Their people

Some call them soldiers

Others call them heroes

Our veterans have risked their lives for us

They have lived through hell and fought with honor

Many have killed

And regret doing so

For every life, there is a soul

For every soul, there is a life

For those who have died, we show great appreciation and remembrance

For those who live, along with them live the horrific memories of battle

Some, memories of defeat

Some, memories of victory

Our veterans were more than soldiers

They were, and still are heroes

Today is also Veterans Day or Rememberance Day as we call it here in the UK (and also called Poppy Day). 

Today at 11am the entire country will stop everything to observe the 2 minutes silence to remember all those that fought bravely not only in the first world war but in all times of fighting and have lost their lives protecting and fighting for their country.

The 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.  We shall remember.
