Did you, or do you have a loved one serving our country?

If so, there are probably some cherished old photos and videos in your archives to remember their service. Dig through that old shoebox, find that file folder or scroll way down on your profile pictures—they’re bound to be somewhere.

Patch wants to see your photos and videos, and hear your story from that time. Is there a photo showing you serving the veteran community?  We want to see that too.

Simply upload your photos by clicking the “Submit Your Photos” button above the main image and we will feature it on Veterans Day. Make sure to add a caption telling us about the veteran (yourself, if it's you). Include their name, hometown, rank and branch of service, and the year the photo was taken. You can also embed a YouTube video by pasting the link.
