Remembering Veteran's on Nov 11 2025

 

Today, in the United States, is Veteran’s Day. It’s a day to acknowledge brave men and women that found it important to enter military service and cooer their service to their country remember all Veteran’s that have served their country in a time of war. Originally it was known as Armistice Day, which was the day the articles ending World War I were signed, at the 11th hour of the 11 Day of the 11 month.

On June 1, 1954, Congress changed the day and replaced Armistice with Veteran's Day in order to include the veteran's from WW11 and the Korean conflict.

Some people use the day to recognize the sacrifices that were made by some as well.

I have family members that served in World War II, and friends that were in Korea as well as Viet Nam.

Those that serve almost go into a distant place when asked about their service as it was not the type of memory that rests well.

I had an uncle that served in Europe under Gen. Patton in 4th Armored Div. Their most noted battle in the Ardenne Woods, or known as the Battle of the Bulge.

A look would come on his face that literally meant don't.

See a Vet, tip the hat and thank them for their service as it is the right thing to do.

Ed Silva, 203-206-0754 - Vicariously I lived the life of Vietnam since I was 16 years old. There are things I know I will take with me to my grave.

Ed as I commented on a few blogs yesterday "all our Veterans deserve to be honored not only today, but every day for the freedoms we all have."

I hope that you had a nice Veteran's Day!  This reminds me that I forgot to wish my Dad a happy Veteran's Day when he called, but I don't think he does anything special to celebrate it, haha.

Good morning, Ed... I reached out to my clients who are Veterans yesterday, as well as to some long-time friends like Endre Barath to wish them a good day and to thank them for their service.
