Thanks so much for the kind words entered in my father's behalf! This is a great site. I've just started exploring and I'm really glad you told me about it.

You're very welcome. If you ever get Earl's stories in print I'd have to get that one also.

John, the story is simply awesome, although I suspect there was much more that he never told anyone. The combat engineers had a tough job in those beach landings.
