Veteran’s Day here in the states. I, too, am grateful for our freedoms and all that has been sacrificed by those who have served our country. May God bless them richly. May we all stand in honor of them today.
I can’t help but remember one who came before. I was named after a young soldier – my mother’s uncle – who died in battle some 60-plus years ago.
And those that serve today – regardless of how you feel about those in charge of the ongoing conflicts around the world – deserve our respect for putting themselves in harm’s way for your and my countries.
That poem makes me cry every time. Thanks to those who have given all.
I just got back from being in Canada all weekend, and I must say I was surprised how many youngish people were wearing poppies! I found it very refreshing!
I’m from Seattle and I feel that so many people have lost any sense of pride in my country and are so anti war that they have forgotten how many people have fought in wars… for what we all take for granted.
