Why no American Legion poppies this year? 

It’s late for a Veterans Day tribute, but I would like to recognize my husband, a geophysicist during the Vietnam War who did research on soil in cold areas. He used to say his job was freezing dirt! His dad and his four uncles who served in WWII, I also thank. And a thank you to all Veterans and those who are still deployed. The picture is my granddaughter placing flags on their grave sites.  I was disappointed not to see the American Legion outside the grocery store today.  I’ve always been proud to donate and wear the poppies.

  1. My father-in-law transitioned out of this plane recently. He was a Korean War vet. This year for his birthday, we requested a birthday greeting from the President for him. He enjoyed receiving that. 😉 xoM
