Posted November 11, 2018 Semper Fi, brother. We held our Rememberance/Veterans’ Day ceremonies this afternoon. Lots of Canadian military (many retired members) in the park. There are also a few retired USMC; I wished them a Happy Birthday. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 11, 2018 Semper Fi from one to others. I always celebrate Veterans Day!!!. One of my sons is in the Navy and we make it a point to especially call each other on that day. It is also a time for me to reflect on my not so fortunate buddies, which I do often anyway. God Bless! PS: watch out for those Field 10's 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
