Don Stroud was my favorite Brother in law. He was on the USS NEWORLEANS during pearl harbor December 7, 1941 and stay on this great ship until it's bow was blown off. He then was transfered to the USS LAWS. PEAISE THE LORD AND PASS THE AMMUNITION.

Sympathies and prayers to you all. My Dad, who was a WWII
combat veteran, passed away two and a half years ago.
The old veterans are leaving in such large numbers now.
Brave men. Brave men.
