Remembering those among our ancestors who served their country & their fellow citizens with selfless devotion. They helped make possible our way of life today. To them we pledge eternal gratitude, and honor them continually in our hearts.

Glad to bow to my ancestors together with you. While remembering the roots, we blossom out ourselves but wither away focusing exclusively on current affairs. Thank you very much for this awakening post.

Thank you, Tomas, for sharing your insight. Your timely reminder about life-eroding concerns is very welcome: sometimes focusing on one’s inner past can be healthier than obsessing about the outer present.

Wonderful Collage. It gives you such a warm feeling when you look back at what has happened in the past. It is also sad to think that after all this time, the wars are still raging on.

Thanks, Anon. I feel members of our armed forces need to be appreciated year-round. But this is a start, at least.
