Yesterday was Armed Forces Day.  I believe that it was May 20th, when it ‘began’, but the important bit is that we still honor our service men and women. Past, present and future. 

From the Spirit of ’76 (painted by one of our ancestors) through the current day…

Both of our parents served in WWII, as did my father in law.  Several sons, nephews and more have and continue to serve.

Whether you have or had family ‘out there’, you know someone who is on the front line of preserving our freedoms.  Give them a tip of the hat, a hug, an handshake.
