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

- 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.

For a Nation 'at-War' Service goes beyond just
those who Served in Uniform {Our Veterans}.
Americas who were in the US Merchant Marine
and 'other' non-uniform services : Who Gave
Their Lives "In-Service" To Our Country.
