POTD 2017/315. Veterans Day 2017

Today we honor America's veterans from all of the U.S. Armed Forces past and present with a photograph I took in 2013 of a remarkable World War II veteran visiting his memorial as part of a New York state World War II veterans' group visit.

New York State Sen. Greg Ball and members of his party accompany Paul Raphael, World War II veteran and two-time prisoner of war, to lay a wreath at the National World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C., September 17, 2013.
