Veteran’s Day 2015


what is a veteran

My deepest gratitude, respect, and admiration to all who have or are now serving in the Armed Forces and their families.

thank you veterans

it is the veteran
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)

    Lovely Cat. Our family have just been reading letters from our Uncle and my dad when they served. It really is a poignant reminder of their service to us all!

      Happy you enjoyed this Minelle. How awesome to read those letters...my grandfather kept short journals...sometimes just the day's temp and weather but he also recorded when he received the news of my uncle's (his oldest son) ship going down...thank the good Lord my uncle survived! Thanks to your uncle and dad for their service.

      Hugs and blessings...Cat

    A man in a dress is no hero. My heroes wear uniforms.
