Today is Veteran’s Day, the day that we remember our Veterans and thank them. Here in Tulsa we have a big parade which I’m missing this year because I have a meeting.
Lets thank not only the men and women in uniform but their wives, husbands, children, parents, brothers, sisters, and other loved ones who are affected also. Lets also think those Veterans young and old who used to be in uniform.
I’ve posted this Youtube video recently. It is a British Remembrance Ceremony where poppies are dropped to commemorate those who lost their lives for their country. I find it very moving.
Wonderful tribute for Veterans Day! God Bless our Veterans. Thanks for sharing the video. Have a happy week!
A great tribute indeed and a wonderful video! Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks for showing the video! It’s very moving with the poppies floating down.
Wonderful tribute, Yogi!
Lovely tribute post for the day.
Remembrance Day service was held on Saturday in the Royal Albert Hall and five young girls sang in front of the queen. Their fathers are all servicemen.
The youngest got the surprise of her life to find the British Legion had arranged for her Daddy to have a couple of days’ leave and the look on her face when she saw him walking down the steps towards her was so moving. I sobbed and, I’m guessing, there wasn’t a dry eye in the house.
As always the falling poppies are so poignant – it never fails to move me although I watch it every year.
Nice tribute to the many.
Sorry to hear you’re working today.
What a lovely tribute! I’m still home sick…
Perfect post for the day.
Beautiful ceremony! Thanks for sharing.
The video is so haunting, Yogi. It is good to remember those who have so bravely served our country.
