The Army, Air Force, Navy and Marines will show off their stuff as the New York State Fair recognizes Armed Forces Day on Thursday. 
The intimidating, high-tech weapons can be intoxicating to see, but don’t forget to contemplate the devastating affects of waging 21st century warfare, especially if you have children visiting with you.
A sober reminder of the costs of war will be part of the 11 a.m. ceremony in front of the monuments, engraved bricks and eternal flame in the designated Veteran’s Memorial area.
A parade starting at 6.m. will also honor vets and service members.
