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.

Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.

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!
If so, then why not?

"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.

"We will never forget"

Peace to you all. Ironically, peace is what every warrior fights for.

At 5 I forgot who I am. Fortunately, who I am protected me all these years until I remembered. Whatever else happens, I will live the rest of my life whole.

My personal transition path included medical changes.  The path others take may require no medical intervention, or different care.  We each find our own path. I provide these dates for the curious.
