Happy Veteran's Day to all my fellow veteran's/shipmates

Happy Veterans Day everyone. I'm the one on the far left. Couldn't resist posting an action photo of me and some shipmates from back in the day when we were younger and skinnier.

I am so enjoying seeing all the pictures you all posted. So much honor and history here. It makes me remember that the things we do have reverberations down the generations. Honor and service and the concept of a duty to country are some of the best things we can teach our kids. That and the Golden Rule.
Our daughter did her duty as flight leader in Civil Air Patrol Cadets today as they were Color Guard for the ceremony at the Veterans Cemetery. Wish I had pictures now, but we were in a rush and forgot phones. Hopefully someone took pics and will share. These are some great kids, most of whose parents have served or are on active duty. They have a glimmer of what it means.

I got confused because the federal holiday is Friday actual is today.

I don't know why it didn't attach. My apologies is it shows up more than once. Also, Diane, I am so happy you are able to sleep soundly!
