United States Navy sailors participating in a local parade.. (click to enlarge)Today in the United States we take time to remember our veterans. If you live outside the U.S., I hope you take time to think of those who served your country as well.When I was born, the day was celebrated as Armistice Day. It commenorated the signing of the treaty that ended of the fighting of World War I on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month of 1918. The name was later changed to Veteran's Day as signed by President Eisenhower. I once saw a variation of an old saying. I don't know who originated it. I can't quite remember exactly where I saw it, but it struck a chord with me. The saying was, "Home of the free because of the brave." How true.If you see a veteran, thank him or her for their service to their country.Join me over at my website, www.dennismook.com . Thanks for looking. Enjoy! Dennis A.
