Today the United States and Canada remembers all its veterans, especially those who have given the ultimate sacrifice.
Veterans Day was started to remember the official end to World War I on November 11, 1918 at 11:00am. (The 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.)
This picture is of my grandfather, who earned a Purple Heart in that war and lost sight in one eye.
