Hi ! I am a Long Term Care Aid / Nursing Assistant and I have looked after MANY veterans of all ages, young and elderly.
~I have cried tears of pity, tears of rage and tears of great sadness while looking at real, true war pictures my patience have shared with me. I have held the soft, cold hands of a 89 year old veteran on Remeberance Day, crying with him and for him, as he cried during the Minutes of Silence for Soldiers who have served and died, as well as Soldiers who have Survived. I lokked around the room, slowiny, observing, as so many shed tears of pain and remembering of the wars.
~I have family who are Veterans, living and deceased. ( Vietnam, Korea, Cold War)
~I have family who escaped Hitlers wrath. My Uncle has an oil painting from his childhood, that once hung upon the wall in his parents home in Holland. This painting was amoung the sacred items brought to Canada during the escape.
That beautiful painting now bares 6 German bullet holes, shot from outside the Holland home, bullets that came through plaster and wood and landed in the wall through and behind the piece of art.. .
*The media shows us NOTHING of the real coverage.
I am Canadian. However, God Bless all fellow Veterans and Soldiers, all over our continent as well as our allies.
