Only roughly 50 WWI veterans remain to see this Veterans Day.

I am making this post, because today at work I could not believe the amount of people that did not know that it was Veterans Day.

It is a very important day and more people should recognize it as being significant.

I know a guy that is 81, served in WWII, he participated in the Battle of the Bulge. He remembers every smallest detail of it. I made a few calls this morning to a few people I know that served in Vietnam.
