In the US it's Veteran's Day but we often forget what that means.  Canada's
names remind us: Remembrance Day, or Armistice Day, the event it
celebrates.  As other people have said, thank you to those who serve or
recently served.  But also say thank you, and honor, to all who ever
served.  Remember the why and where.  Think of all they accomplished.  And
all who didn't come home.

(Special honor and love to my father, Earl, who did come home from
WWII.  If he hadn't I would still be here but I can't imagine a life
without him.)
