Veterans Day

[Wabbitdad12]

I meant to post this yesterday as November 11th is veteran's day. Veteran's day is celebrated in the US to honor those who served and those who paid the ultimate sacrifice for freedom.

I would like to honor the veterans in my family and others who have served. This list is for any nationality. Anyone who has worn their country's uniform in the defense of freedom needs to be honored.:thumbup Please add a post to honor the veterans you know.
