We thank you rour nice comments. Yes, all you say is
true and that part hasn’t changed. As a ww2 vet, I
find that most share our politics. So, if in SF, look
for old timers. Most have their heads screwed on
tighter.

Thank you for your service.

Your generation gave us a chance. I’m sorry that we haven’t done so well with it.

My grandfather was in WWII. Like many back then, he lied about his age to get in and then served for 20 years in the U.S. Navy, mostly on Battle Ships.

He would speak favorably of his visits to SF. He served on the USS Pennsylvania (BB-38).

I’m 62, so it would be easy for me to spot the old guard. ;>)
