One thing I remember about my Father who was a combat veteran of WWII. He was in the Combat Engineers but his opinion of the Rangers came pretty close to absolute worship.

More than once he told me just how good they were.

As a baby boomer American who knows next to nothing about soldiers or war.

I thank my lucky stars daily - to be able to stand on the shoulders of these brave men who fought so valiantly.

They don’t want my attention or need my kind words, yet they gave their lives and quit this earth as men.
