    Two more days and it's Armistice or Veterans Day. Until I read about it a while back, I really didn't know what the 11th hour on the 11th day meant. I posted a link so you folks could read it from the "horses mouth" so to speak. I couldn't write it any better. I still am a little bit cranky over the missing "soldier" on the tomb, but I"ll get over it. I kind of understand it, and after all, I'm just a vet but an alive vet so it's not all about me.

    Let all those who have fought for this country and passed have peace.
