May their souls rest in Peace and those left behind remind us that War solves nothing.

Peace to all.

My dad was on the beaches of Normandy in WW II. He carried those nightmares throughout his life.

My oldest brother was drafted to serve during the Vietnam War. Thankfully, he remained state-side.

We should not "utter words of gratitude on this day only, but live by them always".

There are so many needs of surviving veterans, and active military. We should "pay it forward".
