It’s incredible to think about the sacrifices “The Greatest Generation” made on our behalf. In the desperate times of World War II, they saw the need and committed themselves to solving the problems created by the Axis powers. It was no different twenty-five years before, when a different – but still huge – conflict enveloped so much of the world.
There were many other conflicts before that, and there have been many since. Yet, somehow, our world hasn’t disintegrated – God has watched over us, and sent heroes and heroines to stand in the breach created by our frailties.
That’s why we celebrate Veteran’s Day in the USA, and why in the UK it also is a time to remember the sacrifice of those who gave their lives for us.
