God Bless our Veterans on this Veterans day!!!!!!

[Gator_Mclusky]

It is a happy day. Happy that so many have given their lives for the freedom that we have and enjoy every day. Happy that those continue to serve so that we keep these freedoms. Happy that our Veterans past present and future stabilize the best they can the rest of the world so that something like WWII will not happen again.

God Bless the Troops, past, present and future!

But seeing the sadness and respect the older man (also a "survivor") has for this young guy is heart-wrenching too
