Well said Paul!,,

I am here because of the sacrifices made by our Veterans. I'm named after my Uncle who died in France during WWII.Thank you to all who sacrificed their precious time and lives.Stan

What about all the other countries and their people? However, I don't see the flight sim aspect in that topic. Not meant to be offensive though.

Feel free to say thanks for those in your country? That's all the OP is doing since Veterans day is an American holiday. Why does everyone have to turn these posts into something other than a simple show of gratitude?

It is simply not possible to have a civil and polite thread on AVSIM. Very very sad.

Because it's the FSX forum? No problem with gratitude at all, for all 194 countries out there and regardless of the date. But maybe it's misplaced here. Still not intended to be offensive.

Something tells me the world will not end because an off topic post was made in the FSX forum. I for one would have never seen it if it wasn't. Not your cup if tea? Then simply move along an let the good nature of the original post be. Easy enough.

Lest we forget!!

Maybe it's because most of simmers are here...!!!
