Moderator Johanna Posted November 10, 2007 Moderator Report Posted November 10, 2007 Today the United States Marine Corp honors its anniversary, 232 years of faithful service. Tomorrow is Veterans Day in the United States. God bless all the men and women who serve, and their families, as we pause this weekend to remember all who lived and died for our country. I've met many soldiers and veterans through leatherwork, and I suspect there are quite a few of you here I don't even know are vets. Hands up, guys so we can all pay our respects.

Contributing Member Regis Posted November 10, 2007 Contributing Member Report Posted November 10, 2007 Johanna, Thank you for spreading the reminder that the freedom we continue to enjoy is due MOSTLY to the volunteers, now and in the past who are willing to risk their lives to keep us free.

Contributing Member barra Posted November 12, 2007 Contributing Member Report Posted November 12, 2007 (edited) They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old. Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them. From for the fallen by Lawrence Binyon circa 1914.
