Veterans Day is an annual United States holiday honoring military veterans. A federal holiday, it is observed on November 11. It is also celebrated as Armistice Day or Remembrance Day in other parts of the world, falling on November 11, the anniversary of the signing of the Armistice that ended World War I. (Major hostilities of World War I were formally ended at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918 with the German signing of the Armistice.)

I'm only guessing here, but I'm assuming that OP is a "yank" vet (USAF) who may have been stationed here in the 60'/70's and was putting out an invite to his veteran brothers.

yes thats what I was assuming also Papa...I thought the yanks might have just jacked up something special between them and the Thais..wasnt sure whether the other nations would be gate crashing their party, or not, hence my query..
