Just before Christmas, 1944, Dad found himself in the middle of the Ardennes Offensive. He was lucky enough to survive the War.
Some may notice the Keystone arm patch, signifying the 28th Infantry Division

Some of the fiercest fighting in human history. You are justifiably proud of your dad. I've had the pleasure to know many veterans of the D-Day beach landings and subsequent fighting through France and Belgium, and have been impressed to a man with their courage and quiet humility.

I'll bet your dad was a fine man, and I'm grateful for his sacrafice and service.
