This is so Sad

It is Veteran's Day today. I hate to hear of the unclaimed soldier's remains around the country. (Probably around the world)Soldiers that are estranged from their families or ones that have outlived their families. There are even some from the Civil War years. Can you believe it? It is so sad to think of them giving their lives for their country and then having no family to care for their remains.

I am not religious. But Jesus remembers those people. If you know what I mean.

Yes, I suppose. But is that enough?

I agree that it is sad, but we must be positive, there is nothing we can do.

Yeah, that is sad. But, I don't think about that. I am happy my husband is here.

That sounds so lonesome. Every soldier who gave up the ultimate should be honored.

That is sad. You'd think our government would arrange for the remains to be buried with ceremony.

I wonder if there isn't something about family getting the remains.

It is sobering to learn that the remains of the deceased soldiers who fought in wars worldwide have not been claimed by their loved ones to this day.

That is sad. My partners grandfather was killed in war and buried over there.
