I know that this is about an hour early, but happy US Veteran's day from your favorite Jedi Purge Veterans:

A hearty thanks to all of the people who have fought for, and continue to protect our country!

I don't think Remembrance Day is a happy occasion. =/

 

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old;

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning

We will remember them.

 

Today I shall be remembering everyone who has made the ultimate sacrifice in the name of Monarch and Country, but particularly the 90 or so brave men who have given their lives in Afghanistan this year.

There seems to be added poignance to this day, if it is possible. Astor mentioned the soldiers that have made the ultimate sacrifice this year - and also this year marks the 70th anniversary of the start of the Second World War, the 65th anniversary of the D-Day landings, and the deaths of the last British veterans of the Great War.

 

I extend sympathy to all those grieving today, and thanks to all serving and who have served in the Armed Forces in wartime, and of course to all those that gave their lives.
