Thank you, all trans veterans and ALL veterans!
Thank you for your current and past military service to our country.
We remember you, we are grateful for you, and that is not just on a few days a year.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Amen! Thank you to those of you who served to protect us all. It is a hard job, and sort of out-of-sight-out-of-mind for many people. Thank you!
"Thank you all Trans veterans and ALL veterans!"
I'm the former, and I also thank the latter. :)
I thank you, Chrissy, for thinking about us on this day.
Hugs, Devlyn
I'm going to hijack this for a moment. I'm currently living in Biggleswade, England. Yesterday we went downtown to the War Monument for the Armistice Day Centenary observance. There was a huge turnout, as there was across the entire UK.
The monument carries the names of the 172 local residents who lost their lives in WWI. Every name was read during the observance.
Today I did some homework, the closest census I could find was 1911, a few years before the war broke out. There were 5,375 residents here then. 172 laid down their lives in that conflict, an amazingly large percentage.

Peace to you all. Ironically, peace is what every warrior fights for.
It was my Honor.
