Don't you love it when you work up a decent thread, things are going well & you find that someone whom posted in your thread creates one practically verbatim the very next day?
It's all good bro, think of like this....like the other person who posted an identical thread, for today the Continent of North America IS standing united. Be proud, remember your loved ones for their sacrifices, and don't worry about the petty $h!+ that goes on (cause it's more common than you may think).
The end of the war.....extend that olive branch to your fellow man (or woman)...because it's about.....
I dont know man. I think some may be due to laziness and people just not rolling through all the threads first. But on your link example I see two different threads, although similar. Yours seems more for actual vets as the other seems more for civilians. Unless Veterans Day isn't supposed to be celebrated by civilians? I dont think so though.
