Armistice Day.


On the eleventh hour
Of the eleventh day
Of the eleventh month
The guns fell silent.

  3. Apparently there is one living veteran of the American Expeditionary Force, Mr. Fred Buckles, of Charles Town, WV.

    I think he ought to receive a full state funeral when he dies, as the representative of the two million Americans who were part of the AEF and as a final thank-you to those men.

    If you agree, then I ask that you blog about the idea and also contact your congresscritters.

  4. Not a bad thought, but why don't we just vote that Mr. Buckles live forever--so there will always be one voice left to remind us what a World of Hurt we sent those boys into? Worst. Effing. War. Ever.
