Happy Veterans Day to all of our vets. I was proud to have served in the world's greatest Air Force (5/94-5/98-Active Duty and from 02/01-10/06 NY Air National Guard)

Fantastic post Mr Junk. It hadn't even crossed my mind to commemorate them on MR. Salut to all those that have given their lives in the fight for freedom and peace.

Thanks Alabama :)

I'm a few hours late, but thank you to all the Veterans that ensure we enjoy a easy way of life. We're forever greatful and extremely proud of what you do, and what you have done.

This Sunday in the UK is Remembrance Sunday where we remember all those who have paid the ultimate price for freedom in conflicts since the First World War.

Your local Royal British Legion will be holding a parade in most towns and will be holding the 2 minutes silence at 11:00 GMT.

Please support them if possible and wear your poppy with pride.
