Thanks gents, yesterday was 100 year celebration of last day of wwI, lots of unnecessary lives lost. Moments of silence here yesterday. My wife's Dad served in WWII and my grandad was a p.o.w in that same war.

I could not have said it better myself. I appreciate those that did and are currently. Serving the public has been extremely humbling experience for me, but I don’t even come close to what you all did and have done. Thank you.

After 30 years in the Navy my brother never ever doubted or lost sight of this and I'm sure neither of them did either
