It's Veterans Day.
Today marks the anniversary of the end of World War I. It was also known as "the war to end all wars," which, unfortunately, it wasn't. My grandfather, Festus Joyce, served in World War I. He emigrated to the United States from Ireland in 1910. A few years later, he shipped out to Europe to fight for his new country, which earned him U.S. citizenship. That is a very American story -- and is repeated to this day. Below is my grandfather in his uniform. He died in 1970 when I was 10:
On this day when we honor them, thanks to all the vets and future vets.
