It's on Sunday. But nonetheless, I also salute all those who served in the armed forces throughout US history.

So it is.... Weird that my calendar says today, I should know better. Oh well the sentiment remains the same.

They mentioned it being today on the Today show this morn too..

They said "on this Veterans Day"...

But it's on the 11th. That's the designated date for it, has been for almost a 100 years. (It's in honor of the end of World War I, if you didn't know.)

Well, whenever it is, I salute all those who have served our nation.

Yeah I thought I knew that, apparently not though. It will teach me not to rely on my bloody calendar.

Edgar Guest, The Things That Make a Soldier
Great
"Endanger but that humble street whereon his
children run,
You make a soldier of the man who never
bore a gun.
What is it through the battle smoke the
valiant soldier sees?"

I hope today finds all of you well.
