    My heart felt thanks to all who have and still serve in the stead of others unwilling unable or not of proper age...even those who oppose you. My hat's off to all of you.
    My special honor goes to my father. Deck Seaman, machine Gunner, US Navy, WWII who served at Normandy and the Pacific Theater. D-Day was 2 months, 10 days after his 18th birthday. He was still just a kid! That just blows my mind.

    Lost his ship to a mine but refused a Purple Heart because he felt his injuries weren't bad enough.

    Died 6/8/2016 and buried in Jacksonville National Cemetery. Thanks be to God for the chance to hold his hand while he took his last breaths.

    I love you Dad. I miss you and I'll seeyou soon

    I hope all will enjoy watching what some civilian pilots did for the families of two airmen who were downed in Laos when the government denied a flyover.

    There's a better more in depth video out there 'somewhere' but I'll be damned if I can find it.
