In honor of Veterans Day, we're highlighting this really cool clip from the film "Speed and Angels" where director Peyton Wilson takes you through the breathtaking world of U.S. Navy fighter pilots. Children often dream outrageous dreams about what they want to do when they grow up. The movie follows two young naval officers fighting to pursue their dreams of becoming pilots and fighting to stay alive as they deploy to Iraq.
On a side note, did you know that Veterans Day is celebrated worldwide? It's actually an International Day called "Armistice Day" and is the anniversary of the signing of the armistice of World War I. All major hostilities of World War I were formally ended at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918 when the Germans signed the armistice. See, the Google Video Blog is not only entertaining, it's educational too.
