    To all my brothers and sisters in arms, you have my profound gratitude for your service to our nation. Thank you for your service, for the time you were away from your loved ones, and in harm's way . . . God speed in all your future endeavors.

    For me,US Navy 1961-1968. Our local commie rag newspaper had a tiny bit of mention of this important day. Local TV stations are covering it pretty well.

    My Dad and his two brothers served during the "Big One". My grandmother had 3 blue stars in the window. 2 (My dad and his younger brother) made it back. The oldest brother is somewhere in the South Pacific, a victim of kamikaze attack on his ship. One of my sons is Air Force vet and his 2nd oldest child just enlisted in the Air Force 6 months ago.

    want only what this great country has to offer. While others are willing to pay for it.

    To the later. Hand salute. May your day, this day, be a memorable one.

    This morning I told my Pa thank you for his service in WWII. He said it wasn't just the armed forces that served and won, but the whole country, with people at home doing without a lot of stuff and contributing to the whole effort. I don't think we'll ever see such an effort again. Since Vietnam, the folks at home have gone on like nothing was different. We should certainly remember, though, that our lives and ways of life depend on those who are willing to put their lives on the line.

    That's kind of unique..Union and Confederate Army. I hope they never met in battle.

    As I've said in the past, Veteran's Day is every day.

    Blessing on all the veterans out there on two, three, four or more wheels. I served 1976 to 1998 in the US Army. May God watch over our future generations of veterans as He has the past ones.
