Thank you for reminding everyone this isnt an American thing…it is in every country of the world.
Most lovely.
My parents took me to Normandy for the 50th anniversary of the invasion…so many memories looking at those photos.
thank you to all who served in the past, the present and the young ones of the future!
I watched the services at Fort Hood. All those young soldiers, their babies. Made me think they ought to have a show that regularly gave us all a window into that life. Make for more understanding, more compassion.
That was really lovely. Thanks for doing this.
Beautiful post, we all shall take a knee and praise these wonderful heroes!
What a beautiful post. A huge thank you to all those who serve and give so much of them self in so many ways.
