11-12-18
Today is, of course, the “legal holiday” following yesterday’s 11-11-11 Day of Remembrance. What strikes me about this slice-of-life photo of men far away from home, lined up hoping to get mail from loved ones is just that: the plight of most veterans, whether they served in times of peace or times of war was the loneliness of being away from loved ones.
In honor of all vets who served our country, as well as all active military personnel doing exactly that.
