Veterans Day
 
I wanted to take a moment to thank all our past and present military. Thank you so much for what you did or do for this country.

Yes, thank you!

I called my dad this morning to wish him a Happy Veteran's Day and thank him for serving our Country!

He was a Navy man!

My husband was a Marine. My Dad and brother were Army. Very proud of our veterans.

I thanked my husband for serving in the past and just sent an email to my son thanking him for serving now.

We call it Remembrance Day in Canada & it is a national Holiday.
90 years ago today the guns went silent of the first World war!

By: Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae, MD (1872-1918),Canadian Army


IN FLANDERS FIELDS the poppies blow
Between the crosses row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

The Veteran's Day parade was held at 11 am today as usual. Rain had been predicted but thank God it didn't happen. Once again I was blessed to see my dad marching with the WWII vets. We owe so much to the men and women who spent much of their youth in foreign lands fighting for what we in America often take for granted.

Tribute to The Veteran:

I also want to give my heartfelt thanks to all Veterans! I had/have many in my own family from past and present war. America should never take for granted such great sacrifices these brave men and women have made. God bless America!

My Father and grandfather served in the Navy in WWII. I appreciate all those who have served and given their lives for the freedom we enjoy every day.

God Bless America
