Happy Veteran's Day & Happy Armistice Day

Repost: Happy Veterans Day to my mother and to all those who are and are not with us today thank you for your service. To my Great Grandfather Gordon who fought in WWI and was there on Armistice Day and yet I got to meet and love, thank you for your service. To Grandpa: you are missed. Thank you for all you did for this country.


To Mom and Grandpa, Thanks For Your Service

Also:

Happy Armistice Day

Nov. 11, 1918 Was the end of WWI, before we made it Veterans Day, it was Armistice Day, to remind us of the end of a horrible war that brought the world tanks, machine guns, air warfare, and the first use of chemical and biological warfare. Before we made the mistake of making it a general day to salute military power it was a day to remember the day that was supposed to end the WAR OF ALL WARS.

Let us honor Armistice Day by striving to end war. Just as those who fought in WWI hoped would be the legacy of their sacrifice.
