Great thread. Here’s some photos of my grandpa Gaston Achilles Carbonneau (Pebbles) who trained pilots. He had the nickname Peb until the very end- they called him Pebbles because he was so tiny. He was also a recovered alcoholic- sober for over 30 years when he passed at the age of 86.

:woman_facepalming: myself! So sorry I’ll edit my title! Do you call it rememberence Day or Armstice Day or both? My error thank you!

Both :slight_smile:, it’s so hard to know who celebrates this day and what it’s called in other countries. Historically UK and USA have fought many wars together as allies

No matter how often I watch this, it brings tears.

2 minutes of silence at 11am on the 11th day of the 11th month.

Thank you to all that have served, or who have family members that have served. I am grateful for you. :pray::heart::pray:
