A great perspective on what these men and women have given us.
Yes, excellent. I did forget as over in England it is just a bank holiday not memorial day. Now, in my house, it will be memorial day. xo

happy mem day, babes
Thanks, everyone. My father fought in WWI, my BIL was in the Navy during Korea, my ex-FIL was at Pearl Harbor and many of my school friends were in Vietnam. Today and Veteran's Day is a day to remember all those that have given everything to keep us free. No matter what we think of the government, we need to honor the men and women of the military.
nitebyrd - This is a beautiful tribute. I salute them, I salute you too.
