my father left hs early to join the Navy in WW2...he was barely 17......never graduated and never got a diploma..

my older brother, a Marine, arranged for dad to get his diploma from Annapolis High with a bunch of other men who joined the war effort without getting their HS diplomas...it was a special ceremony and meant a lot to my father..

dear brother the Marine was exposed to agent orange in Nam and got very bad Parkinson's and has passed...age early 70's.....

life is not really fair, ever...
