No offense taken, at all, just thought you’d like to know there really was a 69th!

My dad has pictures of himself in Europe with them, posed next to signs, tanks, etc. So many of my relatives fought in that war...one uncle was a bombardier in a B-17, another uncle was in the 3rd Army with Patton, my mom was a Rosie the Riveter for Lockheed in Long Beach, I still have Lockheed’s “yearbook” from those days, with all the women riveters.

Thank God for all those wonderful people who buckled down and did what was necessary.
