I too wish to thank all who served or who serve today. Both my father and my father-in-law served in WWII and set great examples for our entire family.

My father, mother, sister, nephew, niece went to Jefferson Barracks Cemetery today for the Veterans Day service and to put a flower on my brothers grave...
It was pretty touching to observe the "missing man table" ceremony... To remember the MIA solders: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missing_man_table
This is a very small view of the cemetery:

If you click this link and then start to zoom in/pan around you will get a better idea of the scale of this cemetery which is nearly full and in the process of being expanded with new annexes :

Thank you ALL for your service. A little too much typing on my phone for my family service.
