    Boy born at 11:11 on 11-11-11 to vet on Vets Day

    AP – Fri, Nov 11, 2011

    MOUNT HOLLY, New Jersey (AP) — Jacob Anthony Saydeh won't have any trouble remembering precisely when he was born.

    A U.S. hospital says Jacob entered the world at 11:11 a.m. on Friday — 11-11-11.

    And to make the Veterans Day birth even more remarkable, the boy's mother is an Air Force veteran and his father is serving in the Air Force.

    It's the second child for Staff Sgt. Christopher Saydeh and his wife, Danielle. They are a third-generation military family.

      Really? All these people congratulating this family and thanking them for their service and there are others out there giving these comments a "thumbs down." What is wrong with you people? If you can't be happy for someone else you will never be happy with your own life! Give me as many thumbs down as you like, but I will never feel guilty for thanking all those who serve to preserve my freedom. Thank you and congrtulations to the Saydeh family!!!!
