Post is very nicely put together.
It's a small world...I served most of my tour at Ben Hoa.
Beautiful honey. :)
This was beautiful and moving, Virginia. I really learned something about this national holiday.
Also, I think I will try participating in Simply Kind Tuesdays. Sometimes the Ten on Tuesdays meme is on a subject upon which I'm just not qualified or experienced to write. :P
Thanks for bringing Simply Kind Tuesdays to your readers' attention. :)
What a wonderful remembrance! Truly lovely - and such a great way to kick off our new meme.
Thank you for participating - and being you! :)
These are wonderful, touching images. Thanks, Storyteller. It's good to stop and think.
I am so thankful for all they do and have done for us. :) I have several veterans in my family and I never knew my uncle as he died so young, in the war. :(
My husband and my father were both veterans as were many others in the family. I've always been grateful for those who serve. There was a story on the local news tonight that they are having trouble getting enough vets to make up the color guard that participates in ceremonies and funerals. I hope vets from more recent wars will come forward and carry on this truly wonderful tradition.
