[Air Force Born]

Touched me hard. My father was USN 1941-1947, USAF 1954-1971. Though I hope it is yet decades off, he is getting near that last tribute from his country. He did not like war, but understood that peace at any cost is too expensive, and served with quiet pride.
He saw buddies ripped apart in combat in the South Pacific, saw bullet holes in walls in Korea placed there by North Korean murderers through US airmen.
He refueled B-52's in Maine during the Cuban missle crisis, with his family in housing on the same base, realizing suddenly WE were the front line.
When he is gone, he will have that salute, his casket will bear that flag. But until then he will be loved and treasured for my father fought to secure my freedom, and thought the potential cost negligible,
