Veteran's Day
Veteran's Day 2025
Yesterday was Veteran's Day. It was a somber day for various reasons, one that we had to say goodbye to Dervish (more about that in another post).
I did come across this article recognizing 5 important battlefields to visit. Bob and I have visited all five.
Yorktown Battlefield (Yorktown, VA)
Ft. McHenry National Monument and Historic Shrine (Baltimore, MD)
Ft. Sumter (Charleston, SC)
Antietam National Battlefield (Sharpsburg, MD)
Gettysburg National Military Park (Gettysburg, PA)

Veteran's Day Memories

We have several photos we inherited of Bob's grandfather, John N. Thayer. He was part of the 1st Cavalry (when they had horses), Troop K. He was also part of the battle around 1910 at Agua Prieta in Texas along the border.
Today is Veteran's Day and in memory of Grandpa John, I include a photo.
My Dad, William E. Wolfenbarger (left), in his uniform standing with his parents, Richard and Goldie, plus his brothers, Archie and Raymond. He was assigned to the Pentagon during World War II.
