Happy Veteran's Day!
To all of you Vet's...no matter when, no matter where you served, THANK YOU for taking on the job that needed doing.

Yes, thank you.  Both young and old. 

Please know, at least in my house, that there are children being raised to understand and appreciate sacrifice.  From the way it looks, one or all of my boys may well be a veteran in a few years.

I used to call my father (WWII, Pacific Theatre, US ARMY) and tell him thank you each Veteran's Day.  I wish he were here today so I could tell him again.  But, he isn't so more thanks to you who are here today.

And to those of you who aren't veterans reading this, lip service isn't enough.  I at least donate to help the troops and veterans and you should too.  Get the fish hooks out of your pockets and try to send something to someone like Wounded Warriors....for what those guys have sacrificed and are suffering they deserve more than talk.

Yes, a huge THANK YOU to all our vets for their service and sacrifice. I have a great uncle who drove vehicles off the beach on D-Day, and thereafter earned the  Purple Heart from one of his many skirmishes. He killed many enemies who would have done their worst in America if given the chance. Thank You, Warren. God Bless you.
