Question: In light of 11.11.11 and Veteran's Day tell us about your favorite solider and how he or she is saving the world. Fictional or real life.
Answer: We call it Remembrance Day here in Australia. The only person I personally know who has taken part in a war is my Pop. He worked as an engineer in the Vietnam War.
Happy Rememberance day to your dad :)

ReplyDeleteHi! New follower.
ReplyDeleteNeither of my grandfathers ever served (one had TB, the other was a farmer) but I often hear stories.
Check out my FF here.
Hopping through. I've also heard it called Anzac Day. Is there a difference?

You know, I totally didn't even know we did Remembrance day here in AU: I just thought we had ANZAC day and that was it!
