Thanks, Joe. I'm an old Army bandsman (1959-1965), and I appreciate your post.

Great post, Bloke. When I scrolled past the Sousaphone line, it made me "tear up". Thanks again to all who have served, in whatever capacity. Lest we ever forget.......

Maybe the fact that Friday November 11 was Veteran's Day prompted the post. It's interesting, and a shame how little attention that holiday gets.

Well.... I'm a Navy vet. This day goes by every year with almost no notice.... but there are two of us who never forget to called each other and wish the other well on Veterans Day. Veterans Day gets LOTS of attention.... banks are closed and there's no mail
