    Please remember those that served today.

    The ones who came through it alive, those that still serve, and those that didn’t make it.

    Thank you for your service

    Dedicated to my wife's cousin Joe, aged 97 and still living. Enlisted at age 19. Flew 37 missions as a B-17 radio operator/gunner. After D-Day, assigned to repair radios on fighter planes as the bases moved East toward Germany. Just before war ended, got hit with shrapnel (not serious) from a German 88mm shell. Was recovering in hospital when war ended. Refused Purple Heart (as many GIs did) because he thought it would be harder for him to find work if employers thought he was disabled. Crazy, right?
