Veterans Day

I saw this outside a local restaurant and I thought it was very poignant.

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

@I am still oxox

That is very poignant and a very nice sentiment for that business to display.

I'm sure that every veteran or military service member that sees it will feel very appreciated.

We can't do enough for our military as far as I'm concerned.

You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.

That is a fantastic idea. It could be utilized for schools, as well as churches, in addition to restaurants. Just perfect and a good reminder to everyone to remember all our military, past and present.

......You look like I need a drink.....

May our departed military personnel rest in peace in the arms of the angels. For our living veterans there aren't enough thank you's for their service. May God Bless each and every one of them.

It is so sad how little concern, and so much neglect is given to the veterans of this nation. Those that served and are serving should be respected and honored for their service.

It is shameful the way individuals and politicians seem to give concern instead to those who do not obey the laws of the nation. Our veterans are homeless, hungry, and also in need of medical care. Let us acknowledge them first above the rest.

Stand up and and salute all who serve and say a thank you.

When my son was in the Navy, he was ported in Australia ,over the Christmas holidays. A local radio station asked the listeners to adopt a sailor for Christmas

My son was adopted by 2 lovely Australian girls, and he had a wonderful day out ,with them. I have always remembered their kindness

This is what happens when less than 1% of the country is willing and able to serve. The ones who do not serve give lip service ok, but otherwise they are worthless.IMO There's a reason it's in people's best interest to keep the poor, poor.

my husband has several ball caps with Veteran on it as well as his retired military caps.

he feels so loved and cared for when something comes up to him to thank him for his service. He replies to everyone who does. "it was my pleasure and honor to keep all of America safe"
