Not true.....It should be remembered that freedom such as it is today came at a very high cost of life from many nations and it still does.

[Wrench]

Yes ky but am talking only about the U.S. in this case.

[kylumi]

Sadly wrenchy m8, so am I.

Thumbs up to all who fought and died for us.

Spot on Banksy m8, In Europe our annual Remembrance Day brings us together so that all those brave soldiers,sailors, airmen from across the globe who laid down their lives in the name of freedom, liberty and justice(and still lay down their lives) will not be forgotten. I know that Americans also recognize the same remembrance at their Memorial Day celebrations.

"Lest We Forget": The following focuses the mind and demonstrates the most horrific price paid for "Freedom" by ordinary human beings:

For Britain, the First World War began on 4 August 1914 and ended on 11 November 1918. The formal peace treaty was signed in 1919.

65 million men from 30 countries fought in the First World War. When war broke out, the British Government asked for 100,000 volunteers to join the Army. 750,000 applied in the first month.

The Victoria Cross, the highest military award, was awarded 628 times in the First World War. Recipients included Jack Cornwell, who was just 16 when he remained at his battle post despite suffering fatal injuries.

It is estimated that around 250,000 British boys lied about their age in order to join up. The youngest was found to be just 12 and was duly sent home. Average life expectancy in the trenches was six weeks, and was considerably lower if you were a junior officer or a stretcher-bearer.

More than nine million fighting men were killed during the conflict, one third of them through disease. At least 750,000 of these were British, and over 188,000 were from British colonies.

""Today almost every one of us, whatever our racial, ethnic, national or religious roots, is directly connected to the First World War. The war of 1914 became global and total: it was hard to escape its impact wherever you were."" Professor Sir Hew Strachan, 2014
