Monday
(November 11, 2013) will be Veteran's
Day in the United States - a
day when we honor the men and women who
have served in America's military over the
years. In the domain industry we are
fortunate to have a number of veterans
among our friends and colleagues and this
year I would like to recognize them
in a special post in this column on
Veteran's Day. Last
Monday I issued an invitation
to those in our business who have served
in the armed forces to drop me an email
([email protected])
with your name (and company you now
work for if applicable) and your branch
of service so we can include you in
that post. However, the invitation
came at the end of a Lowdown post that
included other topics so I'm sure it was
missed by many of our veterans. |

So,
I wanted to repeat the call this weekend in a
post of its own. We want all of you to know we
are thankful for your service and I know
our readers would enjoy reading about where and
how you spent your time in uniform. In
addition to the info requested above, if you
want to include any of the following, we would
also welcome your rank and/or job specialty and
a photo of you in uniform (photos can be
attached to your email in .jpg or .gif
format). I
will list the text information for everyone
who responds and will also select a few photos
to include with the post. I'll need responses by
7pm (U.S. Eastern time) Sunday night,
November 10 to allow time to assemble the
information for Monday's post. Whether or not
you are willing to "volunteer" for our
roll call we salute you and thank you for
your service!
