Remembrance day here

Rodger Fortune, a good friend of mine who we used to call "The Cat" (we thought he had nine lives as he used to roll his cars all the time) never saw his 25th birthday as did 6 others in my high school class. Lives lost along with 58,000 other young people.

SO many came back in "soldier mode" never having the chance to return to civilized society and many went right into drugs and alcohol dying a slow death years after. John, a fellow I went to medical school with, died years later when a small bumper cruncher opened up an old subdural hematoma he suffered when his helicopter crahsed. He, at least, made it to 35 years of age.

Wonder what these people would say today? I have a good idea.

Remembrance Day
 

Tim good post. Remembering our Veterans who sacrificed so much makes my problems small in comparison. They deserve all the respect that we can give them.

One thing to always remember that Freedom is not Free.

The unfortunate price of freedom is blood.
