Default Nov. 11. Remembrance.

I'd just like to thank all the men and women of the military. Sometimes I take you're services for granted, but I really appreciate what you guys do. Thanks a lot. Keep on-

I work with them every day, and they deserve the praise.
Check my album if you wanna see our Veteran's Day Ceremony.

Yesterday our school had Vets come in and speak to classes throughout the day. There were some from every war from WWII to Iraq. It's was really inspiring and moving to hear some of their stories.

Thank you to all who serve!

I do not support war of any kind, but I do support our troops.

My mother's father was in the military. My father's father was in Black Sheep Squadern. His father was in World War 1. My father's first step-father was a fighter pilot in World War 2. My father's second step-father died nearly five years ago of brain damage; he fought in D-Day and Batle of the Bulge before being given a medical discharge for brain damage and recieved four awards for his service.

I have seen the damage done to those who fought for our country and that is why I honour their bravery.
