Here's wishing all past and present a happy Veterans Day. My father and my son both served. Below is my son in his last deployment in Afghanistan. View attachment 58944
A big ThankYou to all who have served, and all still serving.
The 11th hour has just passed here, a service was held across the road from my shop at the local Anzac Park. Was good to see all the local school kids there.
Here is a before and after; Leo and I kept in touch after the service by snail mail, phone calls and emails. I was so close to meet him when I was on staff at a Wood Badge that was really a few miles from his home but after 12 days at camp. Yes the staff is there for 12 days we had to clean up the area I was tired and just wanted to come home to Erie. I was just south of State College and Leo lived in Port Matilda. Anyway a couple years later he and his wife made it to Erie. Here is the card I made for him. The before is about June of 1967 when I had hair.
