Something I find sad,is that Remembrance day isn't a stat holiday.Our soldiers and Vets put their lives on the line for our freedom.Some may argue that wars aren't about freedom,and that may or may not be true.But the soldier does what he is asked to do by our government,often at a high cost to themselves or those close to them.Without them and their sacrifices where would we be?Yet the one day a year we set aside to remember and give thanks,isn't even a true holiday.I'm not sure how other people feel about this,but I would gladly trade turkey day, or Rabbit day, or even labor day to make Remembrance Day a real holiday.
