It's becoming more important than ever to honour and remember all those who have made a choice to protect others, forsaking themselves. No matter which continent you live on, the WWI/WWII wars and all conflicts since have affected us as a race.
Whether you support "The Cause" or you oppose "It", respect and gratitude is due to those individuals (past, present & future) who selflessly put themselves in harm's way to protect our lives. Veterans in all countries are passing away with time and with them all the unique perspectives of those times of extreme conflicts.
So remember your relative(s), friend(s), and neighbour(s), and all those who made those courageous choices. On November 11, 2009, wear your poppy proudly.
Written in the memory of my Great-Grandfather, and both my Grandfathers, all men who served their country and countrymen.
