Thank you, I will. We are from Colorado. My dad was from Texas. He was an 18 year old Marine when he was awarded the Purple Heart for action in the Battle for Peleliu. He healed up just in time for the invasion of Okinawa. I feel bad for not mentioning my father in law who served in Nam, four uncles who served in WWII, two who flew B-17's over Germany. As for my service not much to tell, I enlisted in the Air Force in 71 but washed out in basic for medical reasons. We appreciate your thoughts and prayers.

Hi everyone. Haven't been on here much, spending lots of time at my parents the last few days. We go to see the oncologist to get the prognosis for Daddy tomorrow morning. All prayers are appreciated.

Love to you all, and God bless our military and Vets.

Thanks, Slim, to you and your whole family for their service to our country.

And now your nephew.
