 Lest we forget
11th day of 11th month. I aint sure if yall are remembering WW veterans in America yet..but meh
Just want to honour the soldiers in both Canada and America who have made sacrafices and even died in the past to help their country.
I would also like to honour all people currently serving in the military (das, lone mortal, jinxie cat) and those who have served (american soldier, joe mamma, USMCsniper) (apologize if missed).

My dad was adopted.
His birth father was the pilot of a Zero for Germany.
His adoptive father was the pilot of a Spitfire for Canada.
Kinda weird, no?

Its also the 11th hour. On 1918, the 11th month, 11th day, and the 11th hour we signed the Armistice which ended World War I. OORAH!!
By the way, I just got back from the Veterans Parade with my grandpa that was in the Korea War, he talked to me the whole time about the war. I like it.

All of the men in my family has been in the wars.

Grandpa - WWI
Uncle - WWII
Another Uncle - Vietnam
Another Uncle - Desert Storm
My Cooler Uncle - Korea
Me and my brother are the only ones who hasn't fought in a war yet.

But if it seriously comes down to it... Air Force.

I'm with Mike, the self-proclaimed genius should not be trying to correct anybody on anything ever.
