Remembering those who gave

I spent 10 years working at a Veteran's home.. some of the stories I've heard are absolutely horrifying, and some of astounding bravery.
I had 3 uncles that were pretty busy on June 6 of '44... two jumped out of perfectly good airplanes, and one sloshed his way to a beach. My Pa was a tanker in the Phillipines... none of these guys ever talked war stories. Seemed from working at the vet's home those years, the guys that never talked saw some stuff that was even more horrifying than the guys that did talk.
I never served.. but I never have, and never will, forget that there were many that gave the ultimate sacrifice, so I could have that luxury.
