DeleteHappy Veterans Day.
ReplyDeleteI always wonder if saying Happy Veterans day is correct. I will say thank you to all those who served. Here in Canada it is a solemn day of Remembrance to all those who serve and came home wounded or did not come home. Those who are buried on Canadian soil, and those buried on foreign soil like my great uncle who perished in WWI in France and is buried there.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
It's not correct to wish someone Happy Memorial Day. What I detest is here in the US we have Memorial Day sales. That's just wrong.
DeleteLovely post. God Bless America and all of those who are serving and those who have served to keep us safe.
ReplyDeleteYes and Amen
