Today, November 11, is a day for rememberance for most whether it's called Veteran's Day or Rememberance Day.
For some it's a day off work, for most it's a day to give thanks and appreciation to the men and women of the military who have served and in some cases gave heir lives and also for the ones serving today.
If it wasn't for them, we wouldn't have the freedoms that we all have today to enjoy the things we have such as swanning about on old motorcycles and other things.
So today, remember those who have served and are presently serving in the military, no matter country it may be.

Seems lots of us are somehow connected to military one way or another. Yes, let's pause and remember all that have served. Should be seeing my 85 year old uncle this Christmas. He was over for D-Day in the artillery. He carried a bullet fragment all these years, that caused him some problems a few years ago. It caused a case of blood poisoning that fortunately was caught in time. That's one souveneir I bet he wish he hadn't kept. Hairy Larry
