Francine, My people went to the great world war 1. some survived the shell and the gun... One was only wounded twice , hobbled back to the line , death was the price..... Love your comments.....Don

Francine, Those of us who served and those who love those who served shall never forget. Not as long as poppies blow in Flanders fields. Well done dear lady. Love, Will
