Thank you. You know who you are. Here was the first Veterans Day proclamation.
Not sure if USS Carter Hall (LSD-50) is in town for 11/11, but here’s the water side tribute. Have any of the others of the Harpers Ferry-class visited NYC’s sixth boro?

Why today? It goes back to 1919, a century ago. Here’s what the silence after the armistice sounded like and the bird songs were again audible.
