To all my fellow Brothers and Sisters that have served, Happy Veterans Day!
...we band of brothers. No, I didn't fight alongside Harry the King and the boys at Agincourt, but I believe there is some kind of bond formed between those of us who have served our country. It is a surprisingly small fraternity that we share. In all the conflicts in American history from Colonial times to the present only 3% or less of the population at any given time have ever served in a theater of combat, and only 10% or less have ever served in the Armed Forces. I proudly salute my fellow veterans today and every day!
Bonus Video! (Not that I need an excuse to play this clip, but I'll take it anyway. :-) )
