Thank a Veteran today

[fisherofmengirly]

Hey everyone,

I wanted to thank any of you out there who may be a Veteran, or the spouse of a Veteran. And if you''re still serving, thanks for that, too!

My dad is a Vet, and he says that it really touches his heart when someone makes the effort to thank him for his service to the country, not because he wants the gratitude, but because he likes knowing that other Vets like him are getting praised for their efforts, too.

Happy Veterans Day!!

Great reminder; my dad too is a Vet. I think he will be touched when I call him. Thank you very much men and women.

Thank you to all the past and present veterans. Just wanted to let you know that if it wasn''t for all of you, I would not have the opportunity to be in this great country and to have the life that I have.

I also want to thank the families that have loved ones in the service or have lost loved ones that was serving our country. Many wonderful young men/women have lost their lives defending our country and also helping other countries. My thoughts are with you always.

Thank you to all the veterans today for your service in the past and present.

Today is Remembrance Day in Canada and the weather is particularly overcast as it usually is on November 11. My husband lost a much older brother in WW2, and today we will honour him in particular.

Karl, don''t you usually post a very touching poem/verse/letter on this occasion? Would you please post it today especially for our new members?

Thank you to all who have lost a loved one while they were serving. Their sacrifice is so greatly appreiciated!

Thank you to all spouses of service men/women. Your dedication often goes unnoticed and as far as I''m concerned, you bravely serve our country as well!
