Wow Kyla! Your post got me to thinking about my own veterans and this is what I came up with:
My father (deceased) was Navy in WWII.
My late father-in-law was British Army during WWII.
My great uncle was British Army.
My late husband was Army Rhodesia (Zimbabwe.
My cousin was a Rear Admiral in the Navy.
My son was Army 1997-2002.

My son was on-call on Veterans Day and my grandson asked him why he had to work on Veterans Day if he was a veteran :) I guess you and I have a lot in common.

Thank you for your family member's service!
