The title is pretty boring.
Accurate, but boring.
The subject, though, is anything but.
A former marine (no such thing as an ex-marine, unless he/she did something less than honorable, right), turned NYC Transit Cop, now retired, captured some pretty cool shots at the Veteran's Day Parade in the Big Apple. Cops and military guys, old and young...they make good subjects.
Looking at the pictures, at the faces, makes you appreciate what these went through, what others are going through right now, and what still others will be dealing with soon enough.
A few signs, lots of tee shirts, all with messages. Important ones, if you'll look at them carefully.
And, think about what they did, what they went through, what they sacrificed...just so we may have the freedoms we have. Yes, including the freedom to ridicule them. And, to act like idiots by protesting at the funerals of returning defenders of your freedom.
Good peace of video.
Turn up your speakers.
And, SPEAK UP when you have a chance.
