Not a day to be happy, but rather a day to thank those who have contributed. Some gave a few years of there lives. Some gave their piece of mind. Some gave limbs. Some gave their lives. All wore the nation’s cloth in service of something greater than themselves.
Thank you to the veterans here in the forum.
Amen Brother! Also thanks to all Veterans everywhere. Without them we wouldn’t be here now.
We thank you for the acknowledgments of us who have served and those who are serving. My father, two brothers, myself, and lots of kin.
Thank you.
We thank you and your family for your service and theirs.
My father served as an MP guarding supply trains during WWII in Germany. I lost an Uncle I never met in the Philippines, have a Brother in Law that served in Vietnam (still with us now,) and I served as a combat medic from 1981 to mid-1994. Those years were among the best years of my life. I still have my Dad’s 1911 45 from the war. Not sure how he got it home.
Here is a picture that I took when I went back to Grenada in 1991 following Urgent Fury in 1983. The pic was taken near the southern end of the island. They appreciated our efforts as well.
Very cool memorial to their service
Thank you very much @MidwestGuy. Thank you for beginning this thread. I would show the entire wall, but there is identifiable material. 
Proud of all of you that have served. 
Thank you
This is my wife’s Pepe’s identification that was sewn into his uniform if he was shot down or captured over the Philippines.
Very nice shadow box.
For sure.
Thank you for your service to ALL veterans on this forum and around the world. Without you, we could not live the life that we do!!! 
Thank you, I bought it as an anniversary gift for my wife. I figured for our 10th I’m going to buy the one made specifically for the Army. I believe you send them the uniform, medals and they build the shadow box and display everything properly.
Happy Veterans Day brothers and sisters. Thank you for serving. Enjoy YOUR day and hope everyone is safe and well.
