Veterans Day is recognized on November 11th throughout the United States. Canada recognized it’s Veterans on the same calendar day, although in Canada, this commemorative holiday in honor of the veteran is named Remembrance Day. It seems to me that where ever you are in the world we all recognize that young men and women throughout history have fought for the freedoms’ and liberties we enjoy in our perspective countries throughout the world. For this reason, in the United States, we have set aside November 11th as the day we Americans remember the brave contributions that service men and women have given in service to our country…in some cases, even with the giving of their very own lives!Comments

As a retired Navy Petty Officer I can tell you that the Men and Women out there are all volunteers now. Overwhelming they are cut from the protector cloth. They believe, as do I, that it is better to fight on foreign soil then to allow our loved ones the evil of attacks here.As far as Iraq, We knew back when Bush Sr. didn’t finish the job that we would be back. There are many tacticle reasons to be there but the area is so complicated because it does not think as a country but as many family and religious cells that while it is much calmer now, until education is common it is hard to predict the future there.
I think Africa is soon to be a target. It has much the same problems as the Middle East. They are just less threatening to us at this point.
Until the world is educated and knows that while we have some differences we are all the same. There will be a need for the brave men and women to protect the innocent around the world.

Thank you for your heartfelt Blog.Only a feeling heart can see something that is heartfelt. Thank you.
You know I was trying to understand if it was really good to be fighting overseas,You have helped me to see the full perspective.
I have always loved fighting for
what is right (usually the rights of the disabled). The protector cloth is the fabric of our nation. Thank you for your service.Who will protect us from our government?
There are several things which are not being revealed
with regard to iraq, aside from the oil revenue. I would like to see a world without political boundaries. A world formed and self-governed by the values of
truth and solid core value representation providing ever expanding value creation for
the betterment of the society as a whole.I think Africa is soon to be a target. It has much the same problems as the
Middle East.They are just less threatening to us at this point.
I agree with you on that front…. Did you know that after the Prime Minister took office he began displacing the S. African people from their lands, driving them into areas that could not support life…this has
helped to create overwhelming poverty and disease in the region. Why do you think Africa is a place of Interest
for the U.S.?Until the world is educated and knows that while we have some differences we are all the same. There will be a need for the brave men and women to protect the innocent around the world.
I agree with you on the value of our volunteer service persons; I think the synergy that needs to come into place is our mutual respect for the rights for
the humanity of all mankind…..supported among the nations of the world.Thanks again for your interesting comments.
