Thanks. However, this 'holiday' is not Veterans Day, but rather the Memorial
Day 'holiday', when we honour those who gave their lives in service to our
Country.

Veterans Day is November 11.

People "who gave their lives in service to our country" were what?
Not veterans cuz they didn't survive!? *Might be, but the fact they
didn't survive means little in the big picture and even less in your
little hair-splitting rectification. *Memorial Day, Veteran's
Day.... there can never be too many observances in honor of those who
have defended our country and it's damn petty to take someone to task
over such a minor distinction.

nb

Now Bob, Steve and BA have every right to voice their op. I started
this, because i have backed Vets all my life. and, also i'm hurting
a little here, because of a Family prob, i will not be able to be
with my friends at the Rolling Thunder event this Holiday. I feel
terrible about this, but, my family needs me at this time. also, I
believe in honoring those who served their country, dead or alive,
military or civie. all who served!
