When I was 18 I was drafted in the Army of the Free State of Trieste, which did not have any army. So I was visited, declared able and sent home. But I served as a volunteer in the Alpine Rescue Corps, taking part in several rescue operations, included the Vajont Dam disaster of October 9 1963. | |

When I was Secretary of my local Round Table during the 80's, I was our wreath layer at the local war memorial. Next year it is my turn as the wreath layer on behalf of my Borough Political party. I think Remembrance Sunday is very important, and we should not ever forget, whether we have served or not. | |

My respect goes out to all the people who served in wars. Must not have been an easy job. My Dad said it's not for everyone, He was proud of Me no matter what, of course at the time I could probably out shoot My Brother, I still wished I could have hit that 1200M target(anything less was easy), the bullet fell short, the bullet ran out of energy, I was good enough for the Riflemans medal, but that's that... ____________ BSG Anthem My Facebook page | |

My grandfather served in the Army, however, his service was entirely stateside as an MD in one of the military hospitals. Depending on exactly when, either for US service men or German POWs captured in North Africa. | |

My Explorer Post adviser served in the brown water Navy in Vietnam. My boss served as a Marine. The guy in the next office served as a Marine. There are many veterans around, you just have to figure out who they are. | |
