In my country many many people died in both wars but no one would ever think of remembering them with pride officially. My generation (mid 20ies) does know much about those who have served than.

Being the wife of a reservist on his third deployment, I can tell you that even the simplest "Thank you" touches both of us. So thank you too. What a lovely sentiment!

I agree with MaryBeth. We need to pass these memories down and with it a deep respect for those who serve. What a great memory. I agree with MaryBeth.

What do you say to a wife who's husband is serving his 3rd tour in Iraq while she stays home with their children, one of which has never even met "daddy". Does thank you seem enough? I think not. But truly, it comes from pretty deep down inside as well. I agree as well- what do you say to these people who risk their lives so we dont have to?
