Hey,Granny,,,

I gotta go with,Sands of Iwo Jima as my fave,,,

Horse Soldiers is very close,,,

He waved at us as the parade came down the street for the

opening at the Strand theater,,,

We were on the 2nd floor in my Dad's office,,,

Dad whistled at him and he looked up,,,

One of my proudest times was at the USO Show in Dec.’67,,,

We could hear the crowd from 3-4 miles away,,,

Didn't get to see,,,

Our unit covered The Duke's back!...Waay Koool!...;0)

You were lucky to have a great view.......I never heard anything bad about the Duke, except his last wife left him when he got cancer and wouldn’t quit smoking (senior memory) may be open to debate...
