    Thank you for your service.

    And it is Remembrance Day here, as well.

        Thanks to all the veterans, American and otherwise, in all the Western countries celebrating 11/11.

        Here's a link to the video that public high school put together featuring faculty and members of the community, if anyone is interested:

            Obama's Veteran's Day Speech, of course, is all about him and how much he has helped Veterans by running a great VA.

            Why can't it just be about Veterans, not politics?
            The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

                Thank you! I went to a Marine Corps Birthday Dinner Gala last night - there was so much relief that Trump was elected! No more transgender sensitivity training...

                    Except, he hasn't actually run a great VA.

                        EGGzackly -- he even mentioned "getting the wait times down", and --- for cryin out loud, what's he been doing the last EIGHT YEARS?!?!?! They have been giving lavish bonuses to the very people who screwed up the system!
