Post by: Frenchy Dehoux on November 12, 2010, 02:30:36 am

      This may not be on the right site but I wanted to Thank all of you Veterans who have served and the ones that are presently serving the Arm Forces so the we could have freedom in this country. I myself have served in the US Coast Guard from 1970 till 1974 and very proud of it. Lets see some of the members of the Cal Look lounge which branch of the service you were in and when did you serve regardless of the country you are from.

    HAPPY VETERANS DAY !!!!

I agree with Frenchy.  This is the perfect day to celebrate those that keep us safe.  I served in the Air Force from 1962 to 1966.  I have fond memories of my time in the service.  Thank our troupes for their service and let's give them the respect they so justly deserve!

And too many people forget that our Dads and Grandpa's (and Moms and Grandma's) have paid it for us !

On 24th July 1944, a Lancaster bomber of 57 squadron RAF Bomber Command was shot down over France.
The Flight Engineer was my Uncle Alan (Sgt A J Moore) who, at the age of 23, was the oldest crew member.
We, English, German, American, French or whatever nationality, owe
everyone like this a huge debt of gratitude for our freedom.

And here I am this year, at the crash site of his Lancaster, with a piece of his plane. A truly humbling experience.

Thank you – we will never forget.
