Thank you to all who have served in the Armed Services of the various Nations represented here. Some of us came home safe and sound - some did not return at all - some in body
bags - and some carrying the wounds of battle, both physical and emotional . Generally everyone is not the same as when they left . To serve in the armed services takes some
form of sacrifice on the part of those participants .
To the members of the Air Force, the Marines , the Army, the Navy and the Coastguard - Well done and thank you !

Thanks Cake!!!
I did my part and I would like to thank all of those who have sacrificed so much to keep this world where it is at. Those that served in the US Military and the military of all those countries that keep us safe. I would also like to thank those mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, wives and husband who have lost someone that has served. If it wasn't for the collective sacrifice, I wouldn't be able to type this!!!
THANK YOU!!!
Taz

I don’t think we can describe any service, division or person.
For me any individual of whatever nationality who has a good intention and has his heart on the good place and are defending for the good of the community (not talking about issues due to politics, religion or warmonger) should be recommended today, tomorrow and in the past, where and whenever sacrifices have been or are being made.
This is a really delicate topic which I don’t like to get involved in or comment on past or present conflict situations. But due to the remembrance of the end of WWI today, I’m spitting my opinion, everyone has his opinion and reason, but for me the correct drive would be common sense.
In general all efforts to contribute to a free and equal world should be awarded, if it is in the field, on the sea in the skies or behind a desk (don’t forget them as well), in general everyone who contributes to a better world …
My thanks to all and everyone for keeping / making this world better, today and in the past !

I did my part and I don't think any branch is any better than another. We serve/served the same country with the same dedication, We fought sometimes side by side. I for one am thankful to those who have served whether it was at home or over seas, and your welcome I would do it again if I could.
