Not in Canada, although I pray for them regularly.

Noreen,

We are in Atoka TN, at my sister's. Been here for the last 4 days. We
went to the National Cemetary in Memphis with the local Legion. I was
a very nice service. When we went to the area where the young poeple
are now there was not a dry eye in the crowd.

I hope every one did something.

Hugs & God bless,
Dennis & Gail

Now now Noreen, first of all raspberries are delicious so go ahead....LOL,
maybe most of your country men were celebrating the day, and had no time
to answer you, always think the best of others.....

I think however, that most of us, when we hear and read about the fallen
soldiers, no matter what war it is,or was, do remember, it affects us
all. We all remember in our own private ways. Some of us out loud and
some of us privately.

Hope you had a great day

You are so right Els. My son served two tours a few years ago overflying
Boznia and I was a mess the whole time he was gone. Thank heavens he
doesn't have to go to Afghanistan. There's a hopeless cause.

Thanks for your lovely comments, Els. It makes me all the more eager to
meet you in person. I'm probably one of the few who wasn't out celebrating
yesterday; unless I have to go out on a day as hot as it was, I stay inside.

Shelagh, I can imagine that that must have been a difficult time. I
think that there are quite a few mothers here in this group with children
and husbands in the militairy. Though times for sure.
