VE Day...

Today marks the 76th anniversary of the end of the war in Europe...May 8, 1945 was VE Day.
While the Pacific conflict would rage on until August, the allies celebrated wildly the defeat of Nazi Germany on this day.

Please take a moment to remember all those that served back then...the greatest generation.

Going to our local American Legion for dinner tonight, where they will have a commemorative ceremony.

Less news about it every year, hard to believe what's become of our Nations also leaders since.

Thanks to those who sacrificed their everything for the freedoms we all still enjoy every single day!
