Today, in the good old US of A, is Veteran's Day.

Thanks for your service.

A special thanks to Danny Dietz.

Today always reminds me of John Lennon.

There are a lot of veterans in my family - my grandfather, my uncles, my cousins. Thinking of them all today as we honor those who proudly served.

Thank you to all who have served all our respective countries. And my thanks, also, for the sacrifice of those who have lost loved ones in service to their country.

Good idea, as usual, postie....

Imagine
John Lennon, Plastic Ono Band

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today... Aha-ah...
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace... You...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world... You...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

It's time to put hate aside. Rather than pushing others away, realize if not for all of us...there could be none of us.

Peace out...go in peace...

Every Veterans Day my thoughts turn to the thousands of submariners who never made it back during WWII. There is an online memorial site dedicated to their memory. Many of the WWII vets have no photo to go along with their memorial. If your family lost someone on a boat during the war, you can send them a photo, and it will be added free of charge.
