Veteran's Day

In this day and age, all the attention and adulation seems to be on celebrities - sports figures, entertainers, heiresses - and we seem to either forget or malign those whose sacrifices have actually made a difference...

The men and women of our Armed Forces.

So, to my late grandfather, a Marine who served in WWII....

To my father-in-law, who did two tours in Vietnam...and to his brothers, who also served.

To D, my grandson's daddy, due to deploy to the Middle East in a couple of months...

And to all the men and women who have ever served, giving up their plans, time with family, their health, and sometimes even their lives...

THANK YOU
