Veteran's Day

In the beginning of a change,
the patriot is a scarce man,
and brave, and hated and scorned.
When his cause succeeds, the timid join him,
for then it costs nothing to be a patriot.

Mark Twain, Notebook, 1935

For an excellent video please view God Bless Our Veterans. Thanks for the link Mike of Rambling Stuff.

Looks like you and I had a similar idea for Veterans Day … perfect quote from Mark Twain! I shared a selection of posters in different collages on each blog, but didn’t include them all as you did. My computer is being a pain today and won’t play video clips. Hopefully it won’t be so contrary tomorrow.
Hugs and blessings,

Kimmie on November 11, 2008 3:58 PM said...

What an amazing tribute. May we never forget all who have and are serving this great nation!
Hugs,

We will remember them. Soldiers only die when no one remembers.

Eric S. on November 11, 2008 9:55 PM said...

Excellent quote.

anthonynorth on November 12, 2008 12:20 AM said...

On our Armistice Day it was amazing to watch three veterans wheeled to the Cenotaph in London to have wreathes laid for them. At 108, 110, and 112, they were three of the four last remaining people in Britain who fought in the First World War.
The day will soon be out of living memory - which makes remembering them even more important.
