Thanks MHGinTN.

The first story should be a warning that this is a serious situation and America is now on the Front Lines whether we want to admit it or not. The second bought tears to my eyes.

Thanks Sam.

God bless our guys who'll likely see some action before the end of the day. I'm sure they'll have some stories to tell, too.

Morning Skeeter. I hope this mission is quick and decisive and that all the casualties are on the other side.

Hi gang! I just wanted to pop in and tell ALL of our veterans thank you for the freedom that they gave us.

God bless our President, his advisors, and our troops and their families!

Question:

I'm trying to help my mother find information about her dad. We thought he was in the 101st Airborne division. Then we thought it might have been 82nd. She wrote a sweet old man, described what he did and asked for any information. The veteran wrote her back and said he wasn't listed in that division and it sounded like from what she described, he might have been in the 17th airborne. I've been looking at 17th airborne sites today and I'm not having any luck.

Does anyone know of a place where I can enter Grandpa's name and try to find him? His name was William Gray Braddock.

I've also got ONE picture of him in his uniform. I can scan it in. Is there anyone who is good at identifying buttons or patches on hats and coats?
