It's not Veteran's Day.

This Day is for those that cannot say thank you.

Those that gave they're all.

To those, I say thank you.

Edit: didn't mean to sound dickish......just a pet peeve.

I was just coming in here to say the same thing. The support means a lot but unfortunately Memorial Day can't be celebrated by those it honors.

Yeah, I get that as I have family members who are in the fallen category along with two of my very good friends. I saw a thread thanking those who served and so I thanked them as well. Today isn't Veteran's day and I don't feel I need a special day to say thank you, so yes I am somewhat offended by your pet peeve, but I will make it okay and sure you have your own personal reasons for feeling the way you do. thanks

as a Vet, thanks for your appreciation. And again, I didn't mean to sound like a prick.

The thanks will always go to those of you who serve, or have served. Those who survived and those who gave the ultimate sacrifice. I live near Ft Carson, and two air force bases. We unfortunately get the news of our fallen quite frequently. Thank you again sir.

I will be keeping all veterans in my thoughts this weekend... Has to be tough on you guys to have lost even one brother/sister in arms... Thanks for all you do and here's to those that have fallen as well as all those who will fall in the future .
