Salute to all who served

Salute and hats off to all our Veterans out there. My father at 92 is one of the many WWII boys that served his country and is still around.

    I'm a veteran also, Nam era. I fill good about what we were trying to accomplish, but your father and everyone else who fought in WWII actually saved the world. God Bless him and all others who have served.

    “Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down your life for your friends.” Thank you all for serving us. Our country is still great because of God’s grace and our military.

    Many, many heartfelt thanks... these brave men and women have given so much to so many of us, it is through their efforts and sacrifices we get to enjoy the freedoms we still have today....

    Thanks fellas, your service is greatly appreciated, amazing how few views this got, tells you something of the current mentality, stay strong, our freedoms wouldn't be here without you guys, always in our thoughts and hearts.

    I agree 100% but why wait for a select holiday to say thank-you?  My avatar is no meme, the picture was taken during an actual sunset and that flag fly's in my front yard 24/365 and, kept well lit.  I have some near-by neighbors I've promised I'll "NEVER FORGET" but unfortunately, a few might not hear me, they served in the war of 1812.
