Letter: Honour our vets all year round

The Editor,

As I pinned on my poppy, I could not help but reflect upon what it means to respect and honour all those who were willing to make the ultimate sacrifice.

They were the average Joes, Johns and Jeans whose love ones at home suffered as much as they did not knowing what the future would thrust upon them.

They did their duty unquestioningly and were guided by decisions of the times.

They deserve our respect all year, not only when pompous politicians see it advantageous to their cause.

Ignac Fodor, Coquitlam
