What better way to celebrate Veteran's Day than to spend a few minutes with some mibloggers, may of whom are either active duty, or more often Vets themselves?
So stop in and give Baldilocks a read. If you don't, she's liable to track you down and, ... well, you know. She's been out here for years and, yes, she's that tough! ; )
Rounding up a few, my apologies, I know it's a few too few, next is BlackFive. Another old timer still in the game. Come to think of it, most of them are that.
Then there's Mudville Gazette by Greyhawk, another milblog standard out here.
And rounding out this pack, and so you can hit that Project Valour - IT Marine team widget if you haven't yet, is Marine wife Cassandra at Villainous Company. She's another long time friend of mine. Little wonder why given her blog name!
My apologies to any fine milblogs I've missed. There are a great number of them out here. You can always scan over the blogrolls at links above and visit some more. Most of all, keep all of our proud Vets in your hearts and minds today. We owe them that and more.


Thank you for your service.

Veterans Day has always been a special day for me and not just because it's my birthday!
I was born on an Air Force base and lived on the island of Guam during the Vietnam war as a young teenager.
I always got the day off from school and we would go to the VFW hall for a Chili feed every year.
A special shout out to all of those that have put their ass on the line!!
The freedoms that they have fought and died for has allowed our little "god king" and his scumbag friends to loot our treasury and push their "one world" social order down our throats!!
Despite these losers attempts to screw it up we still live in the greatest country in the history of the planet.
Now lets go take it back!!

This is a horrible story. If true some careers need to end badly.
