For the Brits and some of your older folks.
Eleventh Month. Eleventh Day, Eleventh Hour. Lest we forget.
The only lessons in my life I truly did learn from where the ones I paid for!

Sadly, it is now forgotten. It's also my mother-in-law's birthday and we mark it dutifully but... todays popular "cell-phone" culture and media almost completely ignore it. The lessons of history mean nothing to the children of the "me" generation. The recent Hamas attack on the Israelis demonstrates that for me.

My parents were engaged when Pearl Harbor was bombed. They talked long into the night about what to do. The next Saturday, the 13th, they eloped and not long after he enlisted and was gone to the Pacific for the duration. He came back in ‘45 to a wife and a little Ozark farm. They celebrated their golden wedding anniversary shortly before his fatal heart attack.
That “greatest generation” was cut from different cloth, woven on the depression loom. I have to wonder how many marriages today would survive such a start.
