From one service member to all those who have come before and especially to those who have given the ultimate sacrifice, we salute you.

All this makes me think of is my Pops, i miss that man every day that goes by. kind of surreal to know that my dad watched his home burn around him in WW2, he was born in Germany in 1937, lived and experienced the whole thing from within the confines of the Reich. My old man never did speak much, but when he did, he did it with purpose. He spent most of his career with 3rd armored. over 30+ years, to me he was almost like super man, wanted to be just like him. He got real sick before my first deployment. by the time I made it back, he was gone. I had to tell my uncle he had lost his older brother. i didn't think the service was gonna go like it did either, we didnt have that many family members left on either side that cared to even talk to my dad, so i thought it was gonna be really empty there. maybe me, uncle Charlie and a few others, to my surprise there had to be over 30 people there i didn't recognize, all men my dads age or even a little older. out of a slightly unnerved curiosity i asked them why they were at my dads service. one of them stood up and looked at me with the the most pained eyes i swear I've ever seen told me "we came to say good bye to our brother, one last time". i broke down....23 years old and i broke down in tears, hugged this man i didn't even know and thanked him for being my pop's brother. to this day i still cant walk into his room without breaking down into tears, i cant look at the Picture of him i keep above the fireplace without crying. I think he'd be glad to know that I've found Brothers like he did, and when i hang my Stetson up for the last time, and walk through st. Peters pearly gates, into Valhalla or wherever i end up....I hope he's there with ma so we can be together one last time.

+John Schultz I'm sorry for your loss and thankful for your sacrifice. WWII was a turning point for humanity, even those who were young during those years. I cannot begin to fathom the depths of the horror and pray that we don't have to face such evil. If and when we do, however, we will be ready.

The lead in would have been appropriate for Memorial Day, when we honer those who have died in the service of our country. A veteran is one who served and survived.

Steven Beyer Point taken. However, in the active service, we never recognize veteran's day to remember "ourselves," but rather those that have gone before. This was written during a prior deployment specifically to honor those we lost. Keep in mind, with our deployment schedule, we usually celebrate either veteran's day OR Memorial Day during a deployment (rarely both unless we are on a 12 month - not as common now as during early Iraq and Afghanistan). Thus, both days are set aside to remember the fallen.

My memory of how we observed Veteran's Day when I was on active duty is very dim. My active duty was from August 1967 to August 1971, nearly 50 years ago, hard to believe. Are you regular or reserve? If you are reserve my hat's off to you. Some reserve and guard members have been deployed three or four times since 1990. During the Vietnam era being a reservist or national guardsman was more like a legal draft dodge. Yes, I did go to Nam for four months during the last six months of my active duty time, a fact that embarrasses me a bit since I did not do a full tour.
