Give your father my best. All vets deserve to be honored but the WW2 folks hold a special place in history. A unique time and a unique effort. This population of men and women are thinning fast. Honor them while they are still with us.

spent the afternoon with my father at the nursing home.

got him to tell me some stories about his time in the USN (1942-46). he was on an LST in the Pacific.

even tho he has pretty severe dementia, when he's talking about his time in the service over 70 years ago, his memory seems really vivid.

thank you, Dad.

I thanked my Dad for his service this morning. Korean Conflict (War) veteran USMC 1950-1956. At 82 years old, he's just as motivated and hard charging as anyone that I've ever met. According to him, the Corps was instrumental in showing him that nothing was impossible when training, focus and dedication were aligned and put to proper use.

Hats off to all of you vets.

Had a short, inglorious career as an 11B with the US Army some years ago. Cadre at the 54th ITB... never left Sand Hill.

And still managed to lose almost half of my colon and some of my small bowel. Bastards.

Happy 11th/11th/11th Day, gentlemen.
