Aussies celebrate November 11 as Rememberence, or "Armistice", day. As Lieven would know, many thousands of Australians fell in France during WW1 and were very involved in liberating many French towns. Because of this we have enjoyed a close relationship between our countries.
God Bless all those who lay down their lives for others.

Jacob, Duke and others that have posted these threads or PMed me today;

Thank you gentlemen

Lieven, Over the 15 total years I was posted to Germany from 1974 to 1994 (5 assignments), We had the fortune to visit many WWI and WWII sites in France; The people were great, and hosted us with sincere reverence and honor even knowing we were much too young to appreciate what they experienced.

I happened to travel to former Czechoslovakia on a Harley Motorcycle shortly after the wall fell, and USA soldiers were allowed travel to former Soviet areas. That experience was the only other time that European citizens made me as welcome as the French did.

As most can understand from my last name and many years in Germany the wife and I have a lot of memorabilia. One of our fondest treasures are photos of several Veterans day memorial ceremonies in France.

We both have been to the Arlington WDC Tomb of the Unknown Soldier for many ceremonies, each was a serious emotional event. The various similar ceremonies in France are equally significant and emotional...especially as each year fewer and fewer WWII veterans are with us to attend.

We are both proud to have served and humbled each year at this time with all the Thanks
from everybody
