Veterans/Remembrance Day

No matter how you stack it, all veterans are worthy of remembrance. Taking the time to recognize the sacrifices veterans have made for their country is important not only for understanding contemporary events, but also how we understand the past. One or two days per year may be enough for the general population, but remember that there are families and individuals that are affected daily, and they make an important contribution to how we understand the memory of the past.

When I saw "Semper Fi" at the end of your post, I know you weren't trying to be funny, but it nevertheless reminded me of a skit in the movie Rushmore. Man do I love Wes Anderson. - TL
