That really depends on where ya live. I live right outside Dayton, OH and on Veterans Day there were all kinds of parades and celebrations honoring those of us that served. The elementary school my daughter goes too even had a celebration where they invited ALL the parents and gave veterans home made thank you cards and all. Now, it wasn't nearly as prevalent, as, say, the July 4th celebrations, but there was no shortage of them either.It was a "Happy Us Day!!" The only people really supporting or even saying thank you to the veterans were veterans, family, and currently serving personnel.
Wish it wasnt like this!
Navy vet myself, my husband was with the Army Ranger Batt, got out went and got his Masters Degree, became a paramedic, then on to become a remote tactical and flight medic, currently works for the State Dept. My youngest daughter is a 31Bravo (MP) in the Army Reserves, currently going through EMT-Basic, then after finishing that, going to get Paremedic AS, then eventually wants to become an Army Doctor. I also want to thank all the other families who are behind the scenes of someone in the Armed forces, as well as thanking those who support the vets who have come home. We also need to remember those who have fallen in the line of duty as well as their families. My husband has seen a lot in Iraq and Afghanistan. I commend the significant others who are there for their spouses, parents, children it is not an easy task. Thank you for starting this poll and thread. It is nice to see the troops get honored. They deserve it!
