Veterans Day

[qos]

Remembering and honoring those who have taken on the duties and the risks of serving in the military.

I have not always agreed with the decisions made by those who choose where and why to fight, but I still honor those who have put their life on the line for something more than themselves. I honor those who uphold the ideals of courage, honor, loyalty, fraternity, excellence. I honor those who stand between the predators and those whom they would make their prey.

I pray for peace, and -- lacking that -- wisdom and discretion and honor in the choices made by those who are responsible for the lives and the deadly force represented by the warriors of our world.

I honor _storyteller_ who is back in Iraq and always in my prayers.

I honor uncrowned_king

I honor strandsofchaos and gwynt_y_storm.

I honor Hob.
