Veterans Day 2009

November 11th, 2009 John

Veterans day is known as Armistice Day or Remembrance Day in other parts of the world, falling on November 11, the anniversary of the signing of the Armistice that ended World War I. (Major hostilities of World War I were formally ended at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918 with the German signing of the Armistice.)
We have a couple proud veterans and families of veterans, including some with loved ones still serving in our little family here, don’t ever be afraid to say thanks to them and send them your prayers; “Every day is Veterans day.”

   Happy Veteran’s Day John – and all those who served. Thank you.

   As for Murph – I’m only now recovering (10 hours later). No fun.

   Murph is my favorite Hero/WOD, its an honor and a privilege to do it on my B-day.
