VETERANS DAY
Moving Tributes
Today is Veteran's Day, a day to remember the men and women who have served our country.
The most moving remembrance I've seen is Legacy.com's Moving Tributes. You'll find a number of slide shows honoring soldiers who died in Iraq and Afghanistan.
I must warn you that these slide shows will rip your heart out. Put together by family and friends, they are candid photos of the soldiers. You are seeing them the way they will be remembered in the hearts of loved ones.
I was in tears after watching a few. I was struck by the fact that the soldiers were all so young. Many were just starting families and had small children. The slide shows put faces on the statistics you hear on the news.
If you would like to create a tribute to a fallen soldier, you can. There is no charge, and it will remain on the site permanently. And let's not forget to show our appreciation to the living veterans who also served our country.
TO VISIT TODAY'S SITE, GO HERE: At the end of each photo gallery there is text which will pop up.
