Veterans day is Nov. 11. Please remember that your freedom was purchased by the sacrifice of others. God bless our military. Thank you, Jim

Thank you Tom. I have a long history of military service in my family and feel strongly that we, as a nation. do not do enough to show our gratitude. Jim

Jim, an excellent image. However, I wonder how those that died for our countries would feel if they could look at the world now. I agree that we should never forget. Unfortunately, there are those that prefer war to peace.

Pete, I hear what you are saying. I, for one, do not understand the direction we are headed. But, I far perfer peace over war, life over death; and family over country. But if somebody tries to take that away I am prepared to open up a major case of whup-butt on them. Jim

Thank you Travis. We have documentation that every generation of my family have been involved in every conflict this country has entered since the Revolutionary War. I am proud that we appear to step-up when the need arises. Jim

Thank you, but I am not sure we are not just a bunch of "Rednecks" looking for a fight. Jim

Larry, I hope you take this the right way, as I can never forget. I was 17 when I went to Vietnam and 19 when I was told to return to a normal life. Live can suck at times. I am so thankful our returning vets are treated better today. Jim

Jim, you've obviously struck a chord with this, but in the end I think it's just a really good photo. Well done. Ian

In Canada we call November 11 Remembrance Day, but the sentiments and the memories are the same.
