Wars that make no sense. I am writing this after rememberance day and I am happy to say that at our parade in the capital, more people were present than any previous year. I hope this continues...that everyone remembers that wars create huge losses on all sides. That brave men and women continue to fight for our freedom which we so casually accept.heatherbellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17147708988340030644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4890866550699482561.post-31466637065581973102009-11-06T16:20:03.595-04:002009-11-06T16:20:03.595-04:00Yes it is an important anniversary.

Those who lost their lives in wars that are not ours.<br /><br />And now there is more and more information coming out of the Fort Hood massacre. So sad, so very sad.The Blog of Beehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00650938872732748697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4890866550699482561.post-88398169686090103292009-11-06T01:53:02.065-04:002009-11-06T01:53:02.065-04:00Remembrance sunday is coming up.

I worry about him a lot because he sometimes attends as much as 8 funerals in one week.<br /><br />I have a cousin who was a Marine, but he says 'Once a Marine always a Marine - Semper Fi'.<br /><br />It breaks my heart that so many men and women all over the world give their lives for country and kin ... and that so many of them are forgotten...<br /><br />We must NEVER forget!<br /><br />Thank you Barbie ...

The ex-service personnel are already out in full force selling the red poppies.Intellibloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04262938291462934103noreply@blogger.com
