In the US, that's Memorial Day.

This was not meant to be provocative in any way. Originally Armistice Day and meant to commemorate the war to end all wars. 11/11 at the 11th hour. According to my grandfather it was a very happy day. He served from 1916-46.

Best wishes.

"I think it's like sooo important that we have a day to honor vets, because, like, these brave men and women are always there to take care of our pets, it's only right that we take care of them."

No harm done, it just struck a nerve. Imho, I think 'happy' was a poor word choice. Your Veteran's Day thanks all those who have served in peacetime and during war. That said, I would also like to thank your forces personnel being that we are allied forces. Btw, I'm a veteran who served my country for 20 years.

This day is special one for me!! I thank all the veterans and the ones still serving!! One particular, my Dad!!

Happy Veteran's Day to all who have served.

And remembering those who have fallen...

I am humbled by the service and sacrifices made.


I am proud of my father (USAF), my brother (US Army), my husband (USAF), my grandfather (US Army), two nephews (USAF) and numerous aunts and uncles who all served our country.


And to all of you who served, both American and Allied: :tiphat: thank you! <3

THANKS TO EACH AND EVERYONE ONE OF YOU! :usa:
