OJR Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 Today it the memorial for yet another WWII veteran. A friend of mine who was in the Army during WWII passed away. He was on the front lines in Italy, France and Germany. A very decent fellow and never asked for anything to be given to him! He set a great example for all of us to live up to! He and I had several conversations about his tour of duty and it was very interesting listening to what he had to say! It was and is people like him that have made it possible for us to enjoy the lifestyle we have in the country. RIP my friend, you did your duty!

muggs Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 Re: In Memory True hero. WWII fasinates me, mainly because ordinary men and boys who were drafted performed with so much courage. Can't really imagine our current society reacting the say way. Thoughts with you Orlan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
