"Thanks to Mr. Murray for his service to our country."
Your comment is much appreciated, Sir, but I could do no other. I'm proud to say that my family has a tradition of "showing up", and I grew up with the assumption that I, too would serve.
WWI; both grandfathers, US Navy and Ulster Rifles.
WWII; Dad, Royal Navy (He's a war bride)
Mom, US Army Nurse, North Africa, Italy, Sardinia, Southern France.
Uncle, turned 18 on Guadalcanal, USMC
Korea; Same Uncle, still in, got to visit scenic Chosin.
Vietnam; Cousin, Infantry Lieutenant.
Brother-in-Law, Navy Corpsman with a Marine Rifle Platoon.
Myself, Infantry Boat Coxswain.
Desert Storm; My Baby Sister went as a US Army Nurse
(Mother and daughter Army Nurses, deployed 50 years apart!)
No 20 year men, not one was drafted.
Please excuse this post, but I am very proud of this.
