We went up to my friend's memorial building up in my home town, and we put some memorabilia for my father in that place. That was a few years ago. I do have a few photographs to show all of you.

my dad passed away some 20 years ago. he served in the Navy during the Korean War on a battleship. i can't remember what rank he was then, but he told me that he was one of the people who helped man the big guns on the boat.

unfortunately i can't see him today, but most likely this weekend i will come and visit.

to those who serve now or served in the past, i want to give my thanks and respect.

My heart felt thanks to all who have and will serve to preserve this great nation. It is good that Armistice Day was expanded to what is now Veterans Day. All that have served deserve a day of honor. It should not be limited to a single day. My thanks are always extended to all in uniform daily. They serve so that we might enjoy.

Thanks for your service, wherever and whenever.
May we never forget the sacrifices that got us here.

Excellent thread!

Thanks to all our brave men and women who've served in the military. While some are bitching about this right or that right, or thinking their rights are being stolen, look at it like this: if not for our veterans, we'd likely be speaking Russian [or some other language] right now, living in bleak conditions, having no right to vote, no right to choose our own careers or where we live, etc. I, for one, am VERY grateful to live in this amazing country, protected by its awesome military. If you don't like it, you might want to hop on over to Siberia for contrast...

They were not pets, they were (are) working animals.
