I'm going to call my grandfather today and thank him for the great work he did training pilots in WW2. He was never really given the recognition he deserved.

Thats probably why Canadians forget about the Korean war. All numbers aside, we should remember all those that fought for this country and gave us the freedom we have today.

In the past, I was more involved when I was in the army reserves. It is sad and fustrating, to see so many young Canadians take this day so lightly. It is not only a stat holiday- but a day to remember. Sometimes, I tink assimilation isn't so bad an idea.
Everyone likes to take a shot at the Canadian army but everyone forgets how much ass we kicked in Vimy. What were you doing when you were 17? Stories of how kids would want to defend their country so vigilantly that they would lie about their age are common. Just for a chance to serve.

Thats probably why Canadians forget about the Korean war. | Well, plus the Korean war was a bit of a debacle (not as much so as 'Nam, of course), and it wasn't quite the close-to-home threat that the WWI and especially WWII were. Quote:
All numbers aside, we should remember all those that fought for this country and gave us the freedom we have today.
| Amen.
A friend of mine wrote this in his FB status today: Quote:
Remembrance Day for me has always been a contradiction...I've been vehemently anti-war my whole life, but as I get older I also recognise the supreme (and sometimes ultimate) sacrifice of our men and women in service, and for that I salute them! For the idiots, demagogues, fanatics and politicians who make their sacrifices necessary, I have no respect
| Another had this along with a picture she posted: Quote: 
We truly take a lot for granted.
Forget the football 'heroes' and movie 'stars'.
Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you,
Jesus Christ and a Soldier
One died for your soul; the other for your freedom.

I appreciate the sacrifice our soldiers make every day of the year, not just on this day. Every day that we're out doing our shit, they're over in harms way fighting for us. God bless them and their courage.

I hate it when there are poppies just thrown on the ground. I may be young and immature, but this is one day that I highly respect and wish others my age do the same.

I usually go through a half-dozen every year, because they just vanish off my shirts or jackets. The little pins really aren't the most reliable attachments.
