Lest We Forget :heart2: Remembrance Day and Veterans Day.
Do you have stories and memories of friends or family members in war history? Who would you like to personally remember, thank and honour?
From Vets to the Homefront, and everyone inbetween. Past and present.
One side of the family, my great grandfather served in the Finnish Civil War of 1918 (An event after Finland gained independence from Russia in 1917). Additionally, my two uncles served in The Winter War during WWII (where Soviet Union invaded Finland) one was killed and the other came back home with severe PTSD. My grandmother was also known to be very kind to destitute people during this period, including giving up her rations and preparing given-away meals. On the other side, my great aunt was a nurse in WWII along with her husband, who was a soldier. I love them all very dearly.
