A story about honor and integrity. Love of one's country and love of one's family.

Nothing could be more deserving of our respect. Thank you for posting this heartwarming tribute.

Through tears may I say that your father was a great man, the type of bravery that holds the fabric of America together.

Our present generation,in a larger sense, may never know the truth about the past. WWll was an important lesson to learn. Yet it seems to have been washed out by the schools and the media, in much the same way, 9-11 was.

I too lost my father this year, a WWll vet who survived Okinawa,the last battle of WWll. I too wrote his amazing story here (and surprisingly only got three responses).

May your father rest in peace and may WWll not be forgotten.

Thank You for sharing this and allowing me the priveledge to greive alongside you.

Nice tribute, it brought tears to my eyes. Tom Mix was my grandmother's cousin, by the way.
