17 May

Armed Forces Day





This is the day on which we have the welcome opportunity to pay special tribute to the men and women of the Armed Forces … to all the individuals who are in the service of their country all over the world. Armed Forces Day won’t be a matter of parades and receptions for a good many of them. They will all be in line of duty and some of them may give their lives in that duty.

As I set here in my sheltered cove I’m especially reminded of today’s significance, I hear the familiar whump and feel the vibrations from exercises at Ft. Lewis, so far away and yet so near. Thanks for being there the men and women of our great military. Thank you WT.
