11th Day, 11th Hour
On this day we celebrate the veterans of our military and honor their
sacrifices. There are those that decry the use of force, one nation against another. I am one of them, for I believe that if we resort to force, there have been failures of leadership. Conversely, I am glad that we have that military as a last resort against despotism and evil. The military, your military, whether US, UK, Congolese, or Russian, suffers deprivation and pain in hopes that the civilian will not have to. So today, put aside the differences of conservative and liberal, Red and Blue. Say thanks to a veteran. Remember those who've gone before, making the ultimate sacrifice and pray for a day when global will creates no more veterans. -- Frank Reid Reverse email to reply |

Nice Frank, but aren't we in a fly fishing newsgroup?

Thank you, and thanks to all the other veterans and active military here on roff, and across the globe.

Leave it to the good old USA to turn Armistice Day, a worldwide celebration of global peace, into something else entirely. -- Ken Fortenberry |

I noticed that Google once again has shunned the veterans. They do other
holidays/rememberances, but refuse to recognize Veterans (Armistice) Day. |
