Dad was WWII, Korea and Vietnam. We lost him in 2011.
My Dad enlisted in the Navy in 42, served on Cans in the North Atlantic and Med. Sunk twice. Remainder on Guam. Recalled for Korea and then transfered to Army Guard. Activated for Berlin Crisis and also Nam.
Stood Last Roll Call in 90. Only 65 and lung cancer took him.
He was one of the Giants on whose shoulders I stand.
