The price of freedom is blood, death, hardship, and sometimes while warriors stand guard time and time again while nothing happens, boredom.

Boy is this ever true.

A big, big majority of the military are political neophytes..

Source it - prove it.

Didn't think so.

Well...this only shows how much you REALLY care about Veteran's Day. And to thank I liked you once.

:) HA! Just kidding, nutmeg. A preemptive thanks for pinging the list.

This military mom was just about to sign off for the night when I saw your post, cyborg. What a blessed way to end another Veteran's Day celebration. Thank you so much.

And my deepest thanks to writer33, Chris. Your thoughts and sentiments, written oh, so beautifully, have warmed the heart of this military family. God bless you.

To all Veterans from years gone by and those still living today, I wish to say thank you, God bless you and your families, and may God continue to bless the United States of America for whom you all have so bravely served.

Thank 'em for the service, Chena. I appreciate it. And thanks for your kind words. I appreciate that more than you know.

Believe you me, writer33, I'd like a say!

I mostly hold my tongue.

Once in awhile, though...
