Armistice Day.
Veteran's Day in the U.S.A.

From me to you, thanks for your participation in keeping the world safe for people like me.
Small thing that it was, but you are most welcome.
Thank you for your friendship and to all our group of friends for being there when it was time for "Plan B" in life.
