To my grandfather who served in World War II, my step-grandfather who served in Korea, to my father in law who served in Vietnam, and to all those who served or are serving our country for the rest of the United States....

Beautiful post!
Kisses, my dear
when i went to washington i was so moved by all the memorials that they have. it so humbling sometimes to reflect on those who gave their lives so we can be who we are today.
this memorial is the most moving to me. so many people, and just one war! when i think of ALL of the people who have ever served i'm just overcome. by the way, i'm totally sorry for being right in the middle of your shot! next time that happens, feel totally free to be like "hey steph! i'm taking a picture here! get out of the way!" :)
yayyy - my dad's a Veteran!
PS .. would like to invite you and all to come and ENTER to WIN FREE PHOTOGRAPHY HERE .. if your interested of course!

What a beautiful post, you must be so proud of them, Tiffany. I love your capture of the memorial, something I try to see whenever I need to be in DC for work. Happy Veteran's Day!

they do so much for us -- so much that most of us wouldn't ever consider doing. we owe them now and forever, and we are so grateful.
Brave men! Way too many people die in wars. To peace and less suffering.
