Today is the day we honor,the noble and the brave,

the men and woman who dedicated their lives,and the sacrifices that they have made.

When America had an urgent need,they were the first to raise their hand,

without thinking twice about it,they were proud to take a stand.

Some came back from war with battle scars,others in flagged draped coffins,

even though their flesh may have left,their spirits will never be forgotten.

They unselfishly and knowingly,put their lives on the line,

so when you see a veteran, thank them,cause without them, freedom would have died.

Veterans Day 101:How did it start, what it means

By David Allen

Veterans Day is a solemn and thought-ful time where we give thanks to all of those that have served in America’s mili-

tary forces. A day where we can hopefully take a brief respite from our partisan bick-ering to pay homage to those that made it all possible.

Because while the war in Iraq is essen-tially over, Afghanistan begins to

wind down, and we start using drones for everything from sur-veillance to attacking nothing can replace the efforts of our veterans past and present. And let’s hope we can make the right decisions

as a country for the sake of the veterans of the future. Here are four things to know about Veter-

ans Day.

1. How did it start?Veterans Day was first called

Armistice Day to commemorate the ending of WWI. It was first pro-claimed by Woodrow Wilson on No-vember 11th, 1919.

2. How did Armistice Daybecome Veterans Day?

A WWII veteran, Raymond Weeks worked tirelessly starting in 1945 to expand Armistice Day to include all veterans. With the help of Dwight D. Eisenhower Veterans Day was celebrated for the first time nation-ally in 1947. In 1954, Congressman Ed Rees presented a bill that was eventually signed into law that changed Armistice Day to Vet-erans Day officially.

3. What’s thedifferencebetween Veterans Day and Memorial Day?

Veterans Day cele-brates all who served in the armed forces while Memorial Day celebrates those who died while serv-ing.

4. Who was the lastliving American WWI veteran?

If Veterans Day had stayed Armistice Day and only celebrated WWI veterans then Frank Buckles would have been the last man to be honored alive having served in WWI and dying at the age of 110 on Febru-ary 27th, 2011.

JEWELRY


Latter day conflicts in U.S. history

The following lists latter day mili-tary conflicts involving the United States, those that took place around the time Armistice Day was created.

World War I (1914–1918)

Rivalries over power, territory, and wealth led to the “Great War.” In 1917, the U.S. joined the Allies (Britain, France, Rus-sia, Italy, and Japan), who were at war with the Central Powers (Germany, Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria, and Tur-key), after Ger-man submarines began sinking unarmed ships.

World War II (1939–1945)

The Axis powers—Ger-many, Italy, and Japan—at-tempted to dominate the world. The Allies (U.S., Britain, France, USSR, and others) fought to stop them. The Unit-ed States entered the war in 1941, after Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor. Ger-many surrendered in 1945, and Japan surrendered later that same year, after the U.S. dropped the atomic bomb on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Korean War (1950–1953) Communist North Korea, support-

ed by China, invaded non-communist South Korea. UN forces, principally made up of U.S. troops, fought success-fully to protect South Korea. The Kore-an War was the first armed conflict in the global struggle between democracy and communism, called the cold war.

Bay of Pigs (1961) The U.S. orchestrated the invasion,

an unsuccessful attempt by Cuban ex-iles to overthrow Fidel Castro’s commu-nist regime in Cuba.

Vietnam War (1961–1973) In 1955, communist North Vietnam

invaded non-communist South Viet-nam in an attempt to unify the country and impose communist rule. The Unit-ed States joined the war on the side of South Vietnam in 1961, but withdrew combat troops in 1973. In 1975 North Vietnam succeeded in taking control of South Vietnam.

Dominican Republic (1965) President Lyndon Johnson sent

marines and troops to quash a leftist uprising in the Dominican Republic, fearing the island nation would follow in the footsteps of Cuba and turn com-

munist.

Lebanon (1982–1984) U.S. troops formed part of a multi-

national peacekeeping force to help the fragile Lebanese govern-

ment maintain power.

Gre-nada (1983)

Presi-dent Reagan invaded the Caribbean na-tion of Grena-

da to overthrow its socialist gov-ernment, which had close ties

with Cuba.

Panama (1989)

President George H.W. Bush invaded Panama and over-threw Panamanian

dictator and drug-smuggler Manuel

Noriega.

Gulf War (1991) Iraq invaded Kuwait, and a U.S.-led

multinational force came to Kuwait’s aid and expelled Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein’s forces.

Somalia (1993) A U.S.-led multinational force at-

tempted to restore order to war-torn Somalia so that food could be deliv-ered and distributed within the fam-ine-stricken country.

Bosnia (1994–1995) During the Bosnian civil war, which

began shortly after the country de-clared independence in 1992, the U.S. launched air strikes on Bosnia to pre-vent “ethnic cleansing,” primarily by Serbs against Bosnians. The U.S. be-came a part of NATO’s peacekeeping force in the region.

Kosovo (1999) Yugoslavia’s province of Kosovo

erupted into violence in the spring of 1999. A U.S.-led NATO force inter-vened with air strikes after Slobodan Milosevic’s Serbian forces uprooted the population and embarked on the ethnic cleansing of Kosovo’s ethnic Al-banian population.

Global War on Terror (2001– )

In the immediate aftermath of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, Presi-

dent George Bush launched the Global War on Terrorism—which has become the longest period of continuous war in U.S. history. The United Kingdom, sev-eral NATO countries, and other nations have participated to eliminate al-Qada and other militants groups.

Afghanistan (2001– ) The Taliban government harbored

Osama bin Laden and the al-Qaeda ter-rorist group, responsible for the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the United States. After Afghanistan refused to turn over

VETERANS DAY 2013

Bin Laden, the U.S. and UN coalition forces invaded. The Taliban govern-ment was ousted and many terrorist camps in Afghanistan were destroyed. U.S. and NATO troops remain in Af-ghanistan to support its fragile new government.

Iraq War (2003–2010) The U.S. and Great Britain invaded

and toppled the government of dicta-tor Saddam Hussein. Troops remain in Iraq to combat the insurgency that formed after Hussein’s defeat

Have you ever thought about what it’s like in combat? For a second let’s imagine what it might have been like for your spouse in the sandbox, constantly in a heightened state of fear for his life. As things are just getting back to normal around here, Veteran’s Day next week may bring up some of those same mixed feelings.

Typical Duck Dynasty loving Ameri-cans don’t realize what we go through, let alone what our spouses choose to go through. I think many fail to real-ize that everyone who’s gone to combat comes home with some sort of extra baggage. Mentally, emotionally and sometimes physically — if they even come home at all. It’s not all civilians’ faults though because it’s either not a part of their lives or it’s just out of sight and out of mind. I understand we’re a very small percentage of Americans but the more Americans know, care and understand, the less all of our Veterans and service members will feel isolated and misunderstood.

What always gets me is the statistic that 22 Veterans a day commit suicide. That adds up to more deaths from sui-cide than were killed in action in the current war. That’s a suicide every 65 minutes. Even more astonishing, ac-cording to CNN, is that the numbers are underreported due to Veterans not registering with the VA and states not turning in accurate numbers because of lack of information. The numbers are mainly for older Veterans. Apparently 30% of the OIF & OEF service mem-bers have considered taking their own lives and 45% said they know a service member who has attempted suicide.

Steel Magnolias, I encourage you all to teach your children about Vet-erans Day and educate them on how things used to be and why we should cherish and respect not only our elders but especially the Veterans. Volunteer and speak up so that we do not let the cycle of unknowing civilians continue. Always try to keep positive communi-cation going with your spouse not only

Steel Magnolias

of the CorpsBy Crystal Arriaga

Communicate with your Veteran beforeit’s too late

for your marriage and yourself but also the well-being of your family. So many of our marriages end up in the

drain because of things that are out of our control but there are many wives who don’t get to make this point or celebrate holidays with their husbands anymore

and only get to visit them at national cemeteries.

Don’t let them stuff down their feel-ings and suck it up living in horrid si-lence alone. Please don’t wait until it’s too late to try and communicate. If you need a push start don’t be afraid to contact FOCUS, a local therapist, find a couples retreat or even simply go run errands together, hold hands and keep that constant feeling of support and openness there.

Don’t forget yourself in all of this. Have a glass of wine with a fellow spouse occasionally. As Steel Mag-nolias we have the strength to be the spouse, cheerleader, researcher, moth-er and health advocate these men need but the only way to prevent all of this is to simply talk.

VETERANS DAY 2013

BEA ARTHURBest known for her role as Dorothy

on the show “The Golden Girls,” Bea was also once a truck driver in the Ma-rine Corps. She stands as one of the first members of the Women’s Reserve and aside from driving military trucks, she was also a typist. Despite being a pioneer in terms of female veter-ans, Bea kept her military service a secret until she was nearing death.

JIMI HENDRIXWho would have

ever guessed that the man who be-came famous for his amazing guitar playing and musi-cal composition was once in the mili-tary? Back when he was known as James Marshall Hendrix and at the ripe age of 18, Jimi had the choice between going to jail or join-ing the Army, after stealing a car. He served in the Army for 11 months but was honorably discharged due to an ankle injury. It comes as no surprise that Jimi wasn’t the best soldier and instead did things his own way, includ-ing playing his guitar in the barracks when others were trying to sleep.

SHAGGYThough his popularity has dwindled

a bit, Shaggy was once a popular voice heard on the airwaves. But, before he became a well known R&B and reggae artist, he was known as Orville Burrell. In 1988 he joined the U.S. Marines and served in the Gulf War. Af-ter this experience, Shag-gy became more grounded and even more committed to making music. In 1993 he released his debut al-bum and things only went up from there.

CHUCK NORRISIf you couldn’t tell by the

outfit, Chuck Norris was once enlisted in the U.S. Army and today shows plenty of support for the mili-tary. This should come as no surprise, especially if you’ve seen his movies and the stunts that he’s been able to pull off as a world known martial art-ist. Chuck entered the military right after high school and decided to join the Air Force. He was stationed in Ko-rea, which fueled his passion to learn about and practice martial arts. He became the first American to earn an eighth-degree Black Belt. After the Air Force, he became a prominent actor and martial arts enthusiast.

Famous folks who served

BE ALL THAT YOU CAN BE

MONTELWILLIAMS

Montel Williams enlisted with the U.S. Marines after graduating high school in 1974. After

im-pressing his superiors, he

was sent to the U.S. Naval Academy and in 1976 was honorably discharged from the Marines and then enlisted as a midshipman in the Navy. In 1980, Montel became the first black enlisted marine to graduate from the Academy Prep School. After being sent to Guam, California, and Maryland, Montel found a love and compassion for speak-ing, which inspired him to leave the Navy, after ranking as Lieutenant, and become a talk show host.

HUGHHEFNER

Long before Hugh Hef-ner ever became the face of Playboy and one of the most well-known playboys of all time, he served as a U.S. Army Soldier dur-ing WWII. In 1,946 he was released from the Army and became a copywriter for Es-quire Magazine. Af-ter deciding that

he wanted to make a real name for himself, Hefner raised thousands of dollars in or-der to launch the Playboy maga-zine and released the first center-fold: a nude picture of Marilyn Monroe.

BILL COSBYIn 1956, Bill Cosby joined the

U.S. Navy and served as a hos-pital corpsman on various ships at Quantico inVirginia. He was also sent to Bethesda Naval

Hos-pital during the time of the Korean War to take care of patients. During his time in the Navy, he won several awards for being on the track team. In 1960, Cosby was hon-orably discharged. He then went on to earn a degree from Temple University as well as the Uni-versity of Massa-

chusetts. Not too long after that, Cosby became a well-known face on the TV as an entertainer and actor.

ICE-TBefore he became Ice-T and a fa-

mous rapper and actor, Tracey Mar-row was a soldier in the U.S. Army. He joined the forces after graduating in 1979. He was part of the Army for four years and was then honorably dis-charged in 1983 in order to pursue a career as a rapper and musician. Just four years later, his first album was released, which put his name on the charts for years to come.

DREW CAREYDrew Carey is probably best known

for his comedic acting on The Drew Carey Show. If there’s something else

he’s easily spotted by,

it’s his glasses and short-cut blonde hair, which he claims stayed with him after his time in the Marine Corps Reserves. He served as a reservist from 1980 until 1986. Dur-ing his time there, he was told to go out and try to tell jokes to make money, which eventually landed him a spot in show business.

MC HAMMERWay before he ever wore his famous

parachute pants, MC Hammer, also known as Stanley Burrell, was part of the U.S. Navy as well as the bat boy for the Oakland A’s. After college didn’t go as planned, he joined the Navy and worked as an Aviation Storekeeper for three years. Once his service was done, he jumped right into a music career that inevitably launched his road to stardom and fame.

MYSTIKALMystical, who was born Michael Ty-

ler, is best known as being a rapper, but before he made it big in the rap world, he served in the Gulf War in the U.S. Army. During the war he worked as a combat engineer which some say influ-enced his ability to come up with witty lyrics that were crafty yet flowed off the tongue. During his height of fame, Mystical had create a rapping style of his own that set him apart from anyone else.

No-lick chapstickA cowboy rides his horse up to a sa-

loon.As he gets off his horse, the cowboy

kisses his horse on the butt before com-ing in and asking for a drink.

The bartender serves him and asks, “Mind if I ask why’d ya kiss your horse on the butt?”

The cowboy says, “It’s ‘cause I’ve got chapped lips.”

The bartender asks, “Does manure help them heal?”

The cowboy replies, “No, but it keeps me from licking them.”

Well played my friendA guy walks into a bar and asks for

a glass of beer, and the bartender says, “That’ll be four cents, please.”

The guy nearly spits out his beer. “Four cents?!” he says in amazement.

“How much for a plate of fish and chips with extra mashed potatoes and gravy and a side order of peas?”

“Eleven cents,” says the bartender.The customer says he’s going to rec-

ommend this place to all of his friends because of the low prices. “Wow!” he exclaims. “Where’s the manager so I can thank him for these low prices and

shake his hand?”“Upstairs,” says the bartend-

er, “with my wife.”“What’s he doing upstairs

with your wife?” the customer asks.

“Same thing I’m doing to his bar and his money,” the bar-tender calmly replies.

Not hard to seeA guy walks INTO a psychiatrist’s

office covered only in Saran Wrap. He says to the doctor, “I’ve felt so weird lately, Doc, can you tell me what’s wrong?”

The doctor replied, “Well, I can clearly see your nuts!”

Good samaritanA man is in bed with his wife when

there is a rat-a-tat-tat on thedoor. He rolls over and looks at his

clock, and it’s half past three in the morning. “I’m not getting out of bed at this time,” he thinks, and rolls over.

Then, a louder knock follows. “Aren’t you going to answer that?” says his wife. So he drags himself out of bed, and goes downstairs. He opens the door and there is man standing at the door. It didn’t take the homeowner long to

realize the man is drunk. “Hi there,” slurs the stranger, “Can you give me a push??”

“No, get lost, it’s half past three. I was in bed.” says the man and slams the door. He goes back up to bed and tells his wife what happened and she says, “Dave, that wasn’t very nice of you. Re-member that night we broke down in the pouring rain on the way to pick the kids up from the baby-sitter and you had to knock on that man’s house to get us started again? What would have happened if he’d told us to get lost??”

“But the guy was drunk.” says the husband. “It doesn’t matter,” says the wife. “He needs our help and it would be the Christian thing to help him.” So the husband gets out of bed again, gets dressed, and goes downstairs. He opens

Just for

Laughs

the door, and not being able to see the stranger anywhere he shouts: “Hey, do you still want a push??” and he hears a voice cry out “Yeah please.”

So, still being unable to see the stranger he shouts: “Where are you?” And the stranger replies: “I’m over here, on your swing.”

He knew too muchMa and Pa where rocking on the

front porch when Pa turned and slapped Ma, Ma said what was that for? Pa said for forty years of bad sex. Ma said oh and continued rocking. Ma reached over and slapped Pa. Pa said what was that for? Ma said for knowing the difference.
