I agree with all of this as well.
My Dad, from whom I "inherited" my railway interest, served in WW2 as a Dispatch Rider on a motorcycle. His group of Canadians entered Sicily and then Italy in 1943. My Dad has a nervous disorder that was brought on by the war and, sadly, he had a stroke in 1994 and died of pneumonia in 1999. My Uncle, his brother, is still living (almost 88) and he saw active combat.
So I will continue to remember those who have sacrificed their lives for us, on Nov. 11.
