A tribute to all Veterans
A tribute to all Veterans We have Veterans day and Remembrance day coming up. It has been mentioned in several posts already and well done I may add. This is my special tribute to veterans from all countries, past , present and future. And especially their families and those that were injured or died in service of their countries.

ty for your service Pal! A truly wonderful post here. Veteran's day is a time to remember all of the nation's heroes who have fought and in some cases, lost their lives to protect their countries including the people's own rights and freedoms. When Veteran's day arrives, many people have family members and friends who are currently serving in the military or who have served in the military in previous years and wars. hugs V Become a blog watcher sweet_vm

My favourite poem. hugs V Flanders Field by John McCrae In Flanders Field the poppies blow between the crosses, row on row That mark our place; and in the sky the larks, still bravely singing, fly scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the dead. Short days ago we lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow. Loved, and were loved, and now we lie in Flanders Fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: to you from failing hands we throw the torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die we shall not sleep, though poppies grow in Flanders Field.

It’s a time to honour and remember the achievements and sacrifices made by the men and women who have served their country during times of war, conflict, and peace.

But the freedom that they fought for, and the country grand they wrought for, Is their monument to-day, and for aye. — Thomas Dunn English Become a blog watcher sweet_vm

Veterans day is the day a grateful nation celebrates our Veterans service but they should be remembered every day. Thank you for the post as we Veterans remember and honor all of our comrades past and present. For some of us it is a hard day yet full of hope; a day to keep the faith that this great nation will never fall to foreign or domestic tyrants. God bless all Veterans in not only this country but around the world.

But fame is theirs - and future days On pillar'd brass shall tell their praise; Shall tell - when cold neglect is dead - "These for their country fought and bled." ~Philip Freneau Become a blog watcher sweet_vm
