Visited my Parents grave yesterday. Both served in WWII. Father...member of the 5th Army, 85th Div. 332 or 322nd infantry. Mountain Fighter, served in North Africa and Italy. Carried the BAR. Awarded the Bronze star.
Mother. Served in the Waves at Norfolk Virginia. Of all things she taught Naval Gunnery. Very unusual for a beautiful lady who sang on the radio in NYC after her service.
She came home and married our Father in Youngstown Ohio. They knew one another since Junior High School.
To all the fallen, of all our wars my gratitude and appreciation can't be described fully. May you rest in the House of the Lord forever.
