“Thank you for your service”
five words for a lifetime ~
Each year I think of my
uncles, friends and family
who joined military ranks ~ all returned with limbs intact,
but what of minds and hearts?
What of those lives lost?
The only words I do have are:
“Thank you for your service”
“Our country honours those who have served, both past and present,
in times of war, military conflict and peace.”
~ Lawrence MacAulay,
former Minister of Veterans Affairs and
Associate Minister of National Defence
