We must never forget this date or what happened. We must never forget 9/11. I'm honored to have so many relatives who have served......and think of them all on days like today. I am thankful for my freedoms.

My Dad was in the Army during WWII stationed as an MP in a train depot in Denver. His brother was in the Navy at the same time. My FIL served in the Army during WWII also. My uncle from my mother's side of the family was killed in Germany, other Uncle was in the Army during WWII. Two BIL's were in the Army, one in Korean War, one in Germany during 50's. My 2nd husband was in Vietnam in Army, wounded two times, died at age 48 of PTSD..high blood pressure/heart surgeries/heart attack. One nephew was in AF, then reserves for 20 yrs. Since 9/11 One great nephew in Marines 3 tours to Iraq, now in private service. His brother in Army special intelligence, now out. One other nephew in Coast Guard still serving in Sitka Alaska.

Thanks to them.
