Google, today.
The yellow ribbon symbolizes the sunshine of their old (like the tree) love for each other and it being tied on the tree symbolizes that their love will continue to shine down on a new day.

Re: November 11th Veterans Day
Have always recognized vets all year long. My late gf was a vet, and an x-cop. All honor is well deserved.

Re: November 11th Veterans Day
Big military presence in my family. My dad's retired Navy. My uncle is former Navy. Two great-uncles were Air Force. My grandmother was a Marine. My late grampa was National Guard. And my youngest sister and my brother-in-law are Army. Glad to know my family has been behind them 100% of the way.
I'm not one of those who is complaining about our troops overseas and saying they need to be home. I am one who is saying that our troops are over there for a reason. Each and every one of them volunteered to do what they are doing and they knew full well that there is always a chance that they can get shipped anywhere in the world at a moment's notice. I respect what our troops do, and I back them 100%.

Re: November 11th Veterans Day
I know, this is a bit off topic, but there arent too many more things close to my heart than the Military of the US. I have the utmost respect for those people! I know that these are just words, but this my song called "A Soldier's Christmas.
1.) They wont be eating turkey
Or their Mothers Christmas Ham
They wont be seeing snowflakes
Just endless miles of sand
They wont be wrapping presents
Or trimming a tree
Cuz they're the men and women
Of our Military
Chorus
Say a prayer for a Soldier
And their families and friends
Ask God to protect them
Till they're back home again
Say a prayer for a Soldier
Whether present or past
Say a prayer for a Soldier
That's all that they ask
2.) For them there'll be no Silver Bells
Or shopping in the malls
There wont be any Silent Night
Or Decking of the Halls
They'll be finishing their mission
To protect you and me
They're the men and women
Of our Military
3.) In tents or make shift barracks
They sleep on their cots
Their weapon beside them
Is the best friend they've got
No one made them do this
It's all voluntary
They're the brave men and women
Of our military
Bridge
They don't ask anything special
Its just a job to them
And if you ask, they'd tell you
They'd do it all again
The politics don't matter
Agree or disagree
They risk their lives
So that you and I are free.
Ending
So, say a prayer for a soldier
If its the only prayer you say
Ask God for them to be here with us
Next year on Christmas day
