And a sad but true reminder that today is the nearly forgotten 100th anniversary of the armistice that didn't End All Wars.  Four of my uncles were in it.  And while their time was shorter than many if not most who served in later wars, the physical and emotional impact of that very new and very terrible type of fighting was immense.

God bless all who serve and our immeasurable thanks to them.

Happy Veterans Day to all Vets, past and present.
  
There are three kinds of men: The ones that learn by reading, the few who learn by observation, and the rest who have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.
