Veteran's Day

On this Veteran's Day, thank you to all you who gave your time and energy and passion to serve your country. It is much appreciated. It's a shame when our "leaders" use your goodwill for their own nefarious ends. Here's a poem by Wilfred Owen taking harsh, scabrous stock of some of the false reasons given to poor, ill-informed young young folks, to risk their lives for their country. Here's another take on war.
