To us in America, the reflections of Armistice Day will be filled with lots of pride in the heroism of those who died in the country's service and with gratitude for the victory, both because of the thing from which it has freed us and because of the opportunity it has given America to show her sympathy with peace and justice in the councils of the nations.
^{-President Woodrow Wilson, in his proclamation creating Veterans Day, then called Armistice Day.}

To all who have served or who are currently serving, The Pond gives a heartfelt "Thank you."
