Growing up, we called today Armistice Day. Coming from a long line of veterans, today has always meant a great deal to my family. I would like to say thank you to all who have served and are serving today.
Above is a picture of the plane my Grandfather served on during World War II. After training for 14 months, Grandpa's first flight was on June 6, 1944, a not insignificant day. Grandpa survived 24 missions over Europe during the war, but this B-24 Liberator did not.

Thanks and God bless all those who have, or still, serve.
