My deepest gratitude, respect, and admiration to all who have or are now serving in the Armed Forces and their families.
These men and women are the truest heroes that the world has.
I am very proud to have the liberties that we have today, because of those that have or are now fighting to protect my freedom.
To my family, Thank You!
Grandpa (WWII - Merchant Marine), Uncle (WWII - US Navy ), Dad (Korea - US Air Force), Brother (Vietnam - US Air Force), Son (US Marine - stateside), Cousin (currently serving aboard US Naval Ship)
Be proud and stand up patriotically for yourself and your country!
(The following videos are primarily American, however this tribute is also for the Canadian Forces and all our Allied Forces)
My father and brother both served time as crew on 'Angel Flights' and agreed that this was one of the hardest but most rewarding of all their duties during their military service.
This video in honor of them and all of the crews of the 'Angel Flights'. Suggest you have a few tissues handy.
For all of those who made the ultimate sacrifice and their families.
Thanks to All who served and sacrificed! |
I know this 'cartoon' is more for Memorial Day but it's message is just as true for Veteran's Day.
Thank you to all our Armed Forces personnel (active and retired) along with their families for the many sacrifices they have and do make on a daily basis! I salute you!
Tell them Thanks. I am in awe of the men and women who serve our country.
