I’ve been out of the loop for almost a couple weeks - involved in a move. Back to small town Ohio. I had no phone and internet until yesterday. Saturday when I walked downtown I encountered two places where flags were flying at half staff, and this immediately caught my eye. What was the reason for this? I finally determined it must be for Veterans Day - it was the County Services Building and the County Court House, and I thought maybe they just lowered them before they left from work on Friday. Especially when one of the flags flying at the Court House was the POW/MIA flag. So it wasn’t until I got my TV/Internet hooked up late yesterday that I even knew about the Fort Hood incident, but I am sure that’s the reason for the flags.

But since this post is about Veterans Day I really wanted to share this favorite of mine with everyone:
