Thanks Jim, my father and father in law were both in Europe WW ll, I did 6 years state side during Nam, plus have two nephews in, one 22 yrs one 8 yrs. we salute all who served!
Thank you veterans, including my son. He served his 4 and is now back completing school. My Dad too, was drafted and served his time in the Army and is still doing well at 87.
My father is a 22 year Army veteran (Ranger). Joined after graduating college and left for Viet Nam less than two months after I was born. My father-in-law (who I sadly never met) 'snuck' into the Army at age 17 to fight in WWII. He was shot during the Battle of the Bulge, separated from his unit, and lived to tell about it. My mother-in-law still has his written accounts of the several days that followed as he worked his way back to his team and nursed his injuries.
