My grandfather served and fought (WW1 and WWII), my dad and 2 of his brothers served in peacetime.
Everyone in my clan wears a poppy.
On Nov 11, I'll drop into the local Vet hall, say thanks, buy a round, then leave. Done this for 24 years.

Hear, hear. I'll add my neighbour who has yet to take down his ridiculous Halloween decorations. Having plastic skeletons crawling out of the ground is revolting when held next to poems like In Flanders Fields that talk about graves.
Halloween doesn't need two months, nor does Christmas. Bah humbug.
On that note, my wife needs to clean up her crap. Still a few ghosts outside. They will be gone before Nov 11.
Three uncles went over, two came back. The one that was a mechanic had some funny stories.
He had a dozen German soldiers try to surrender to him but he was where he shouldn't have been, collecting souvenirs (AKA looting) . He told them to surrender to someone else.
A German soldier I met sadly told of being in the trenches with twelve year old boys crying for their mothers.
A former Luftwaffe pilot told of getting jumped by American flyers. He couldn't outrun them but could out turn them. He circled up and down until the yanks ran low on gas and everyone ran for home base.

Evidence please. I don't like her either, but back up your insinuations with facts.
Can it be wrong just because I say it's wrong without ANY proof what so ever?
People say the bible is true because they say it's true ( again without a shred of proof ) and almost a third of the world believes it.
The toxicity coming from the liberals leaves no doubt what they’re trying to do to this country,
Lots of toxicity on both sides I would say. And I would bet that on both sides it comes mostly from a small minority of idiots. Anyone who says there are no lunatics in their party is likely a lunatic.
