That picture looks like it was taken at the intersection of my building (44th and 5th). I walked out front a while ago to salute some of the Veterans marching up the street.

Thank you to all of you who served!

...These guys & women from the Iraq and Afghanistan campaigns have gone far beyond what any sane politician should've dreamt up(from the beginning)...

Thanks for posting this!

We buried my uncle today; he was a Navy vet an retired FBI.
I found out today that he took part in the D-Day invasion. As his ship was approaching Normandy, it was blown out of the water and he got thrown overboard. Many were killed. Too far from the beach, he probably would have drowned but a passing ship threw him a line. He spent the next three days holed up in a pillbox as the Germans retreated.
He never spoke about it even once. RIP

I got out of the Navy literally one week before 9/11. What's happened in the past 10 years makes me feel like I was never even in the military.

I still get teared up when I think of the stories that my grandfather, who was a flight surgeon in the navy and was in the air working on soldiers who were injured during D-Day over the beaches of France and the waters of the English channel! True heroes that far too many of us will never be able to fully comprehend the sacrifices they made for us! :flag:
