November 11, 2009 (FPRC) -- Never forget. Veterans Day 2009 celebrates the one-year milestone for a Web site that offers a way to pay tribute to vets from the Revolutionary War through the current conflicts in the Mideast.
Honoryourveteran.com was developed by Doug Robbins, the son of a World War II veteran and himself an Army veteran and retired police officer.
The site invites visitors to register, then post information and pictures on its Memorial Wall. It’s interactive, too: Other visitors can reply. This has the potential to be a good reference for historians, genealogists and students.
Also part of this site is a prayer chain, where names of service members, firefighters and police officers can be added. Several prayers are included as well.
Robbins also has a link offering apparel for sale. Currently on the site are custom-embroidered polo shirts, t-shirts and sweatshirts. Purchasers can proudly wear, front and center, the name of the veteran they’re honoring, plus where they served and other customized information.
A quick search of the Internet reveals several other sites urging respect for our nation’s veterans. This new site goes further, with police officers and fire fighters coming in for recognition as well. After Sept. 11, 2001, their sacrifices took on new meaning, and they are well deserving of remembrance and honor. Robbins’ site is solemn and respectful. It even includes links to flag and military medal and ribbon etiquette and protocol.
Log in to honoryourveteran.com now. May those who gave – and are giving – their all for our liberties, never be forgotten.
