God Bless our Veterans and all Canadian armed forces.
ReplyDeleteThank you to my husband, my father, my brother-in-law and my uncles. Thank you to the millions of men & women who've given their time to serve our country.
ReplyDeleteEnty, thanks so much for starting the day with a note to honor our Veterans.
ReplyDeleteFor those of you interested, check out the new PSA from IAVA.org, Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America.
Another great way to honor our Veterans is to make a donation - in any amount - to the Pat Tillman Foundation, http://www.pattillmanfoundation.org/

ReplyDeleteThere really aren't enough ways to say thanks you to anyone and everyone who has served- those are true heroes.
ReplyDeleteIt's my big brother's first Veteran's Day. He just got out of the Army after 2 tours in Iraq, & one in South Korea (in b/n his Iraq tours). He just got home for good this March. I'm so proud of him & my sister-in-law (also in the Army-still on active duty). Just want to wish him & all members of our military a happy Veteran's Day.
ReplyDeletePlease pray for the soldiers & their families at Fort Hood. My brother & sister-in-law said the memorial yesterday was amazing, wish I could've made the drive to see it in person.
My thoughts and prayers go out to all troops far away from home today.
ReplyDeleteEvery time I see an someone in the armed forces when I'm out and about, I say hi and shake their hand in thanks for protecting our country, and a lot of times I'm so shocked when they tell me they usually get shit from people for being in the military. It's shocking and extremely disappointing. I personally am very, very grateful to those brave people, and those of you out there reading this, armed force member of past or present, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your service. THANK YOU! XOXOX
ReplyDeleteJah bless the troops and the vets.
ReplyDeleteMy wish on this Veteran's Day is that they bring all of our people HOME!
Tell the world to fix their own GD problems and let's fix our own problems for a while.
Thanks, Enty, for mentioning Veterans' Day. My dad served in the Army during the Battle of the Bulge, and though he didn't talk about his experience much until the end of his life, I know it was one of the most important factors in the lives of most men (and women) of that generation. Miss you Daddy.
ReplyDeleteThanks to ALL the brave men and women who serve to honor their country, and protect us and help to keep our freedoms. I salute you and your families for your continued sacrifice.
Thank you for the rememberance, Enty!
ReplyDeleteThank you to all veterans and currect active military members. You will never get enough credit for your works of bravery, selflessness and service to our country.
Thank you especially to my dad, a Vietnam vet, and my grandpa, a WWII vet. xoxoxoxo
thx, enty, for this post!
ReplyDeleteincessant thank yous to the men and women who honor and serve this extraordinary country...many times sacrificing their own lives so that we may live ours.
god bless them all.
Thank you so much, veterans, for defending our freedom and our country!
ReplyDeleteIn Flanders fields the poppies blow
ReplyDeleteBetween the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly.
thankyou...
Jax - that was beautiful.
ReplyDeleteGod Bless all Veterans!
Thank you to every single person defending the rights of their countrymen and women.
ReplyDeleteThe best way to honour our older vets is to bring the young ones who are now fighting home...didn't our boys fight hard enough the first few times?
ReplyDeleteI honour the soldier, not the war...this is one of the few 'holidays' that actually means something.
Thank you for this.. my marine is coming home very very soon from Afghanistan adn I can't fucking stand the wait! So, so excited!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Enty, for remembering our veterans. My dad died earlier this year at the age of 85. He was a Marine during WWII on Iwo Jima. He was awarded the Purple Heart. I miss you, dad.
ReplyDeleteThank you Enty for "Remembering" we are watching all twelve hours of HBO's Band of Brothers, with our younger family members. Next year my husband and I will be in Normandy to remember his father and my grand-uncles. I hope and pray all our courageous young men and women serving in distant countries come home safe and sound.
ReplyDeletethanks for korea grandpa - i know it was tough and you dont like to talk about it but know that we are grateful.
ReplyDeletealso - to billy who made the ultimate sacrifice in july 2008 i hope you know how thankful we are and that we miss you.
jbdean_79, I just read that article and sat here at my desk and cried. To know that this person volunteered for this mission shows that he was a true Marine. My baby brother was hit with a RPG and his flak jacket saved his life. His kidneys shut down and we thought we were going to lose him, but he pulled through. After they transferred him from Germany to W. Reed, he asked his doctors when he could go back. I love my country, but I cannot say that I could be so selfless to ask to go back to the place that almost killed me. It's that dedication and loyalty that make me proud to have two brothers and a sister-in-law that I can say are Marines.
ReplyDeleteRegardless of whether you support to war or not, PLEASE support our troops.
To my two brothers, my sister-in-law and all of their brothers & sisters in the Marines, Semper Fi.
To all of our Veterans, thank you and Hoo-rah!
I'm thinking about my dad today. He served in the Phillipines during WWII. He kept his army uniform in his closet until the day he died. Remember growing-up hearing his war stories and watching the Vietnam War on television while we ate dinner. My grandparents were WWI vets. My grandmother was an Army nurse and actually ranked highter than my grandpa. My uncle served in the Korean War and I have 2 nephews through marriage who served in Iraq and Afganistan. One of those boys didn't make it home. Miss those who are no longer with us and thank those who still are.
ReplyDeleteThank you to the vets and their families!!!
ReplyDeleteMy husband is with Army recruiters right now finishing his paperwork.
ReplyDeleteMy dad was a WWII vet and like many of those guys, he didn't talk about it much. I have a framed picture of him in his uniform looking very cool and very handsome. He died while I was pregnant with my son...
I will sing a young man's song
that you will sing on Remembrance Day.
I will be be the sacrifice
and bells will ring on Remembrance Day.
My husband and I are both veterans. The support from our families, friends and our community helped us to see that our jobs were not just to defend the land, but the people and ideals on which this country was founded. We could not do our jobs without the support from our fellow Americans. As veterans, we should always remember to thanks those who did not serve in the military and to not forget that they performed jobs at home to enable us to serve. Thank you for supporting us.
ReplyDeleteI also want to thank the civilians who work with the military everyday, just because they don't wear the uniform doesn't mean that they should be excluded from receiving thanks. Many times civilians working on military bases helped me in my job. Thank you for all you do to support us.
Finally, check out these videos of dogs being reunited with their veteran owners.
