Happy Veteran's Day
HAPPY VETERAN'S DAY! For all the women and men who have so bravely served our nation in our country's armed forces over the years, may God bless you and your families and may all Americans show you honor and respect all the days of your life. It's to God and to you that we owe our freedoms! |
Thank you DB and thanks to our other brother Pixies I know have served. And to any Pixie sisters I'm just not aware of.

Awhile back I think DB posted about Flanders Field blacksmiths from all over the world was asked to make poppies to send to Belgium.If you will Google Ypres Peace Monument click on images you will see the monument 2,016 poppies were used for a garden around the monument.

Three days and again we will remember those that fell preserving our way of life. God bless them and God bless all who remember.

Yes folks, that is hand wrought metal.
Thank you jay-t. :cheers: I know your work and this is, as all, no less than great. |
Indeed, on htis day, I will offer my thanks to those veterans.

Mother nature even threw out confetti as a way of honoring our veterans. About 1-2 inches of confetti.
The blanket of white no doubt calling to mind their service and the purity of their cause. |
Thank you to all our pixie service people, Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, Sea Bees..... Weather they served over seas or here in the states. alone on guard duty, working at a desk, or with a unit bringing up the rear doing clean-up, the cooks,, the guy who played taps and still does when our older service people past on.
I am sorry if I left out a branch of the military, This is intended for everyone. Thank you all. teddy |

PF, that's really neat. :thumbs:

*CORRECTION*
I said "brass" in my post. The pic doesn't do it justice. That is made of steel and looks every bit a real feather. |
Even if the picture "didn't do it justice," it was still a fantastic work of art. :thumbs:
