Saw a neat Veterans Day salute on PBS yesterday called from D Day to VE day. Great music with speakers and old black and white photos.

Thank you to all our veterans and your families. It is because of your service that all of us have our freedom.

A group that did much to win the war but doesn't get mentioned are the WASP, first called the WAFS If they hadn't been there to ferry airplanes so they could be shipped overseas and to free up male pilots to fly those planes overseas. Things could have been different. I salute the ladies called Wasp and all they did.

They do recognize the Coast Guard but not much for the Waves. I salute your mother for her service.
