"I am going to a reunion of my father's WWII ship in two weeks. I can't tell you how much I am looking forward to it."
Hope you'll have a great time!
I think that is guaranteed. I talked to the reunion organizer. He is a Pearl Harbor survivor. Man, there will be so much history there..., I am pumped.
I'll send a post-op observation to the Canteen when I get back.
