My Grandfather fought in the battle of Tarawa

Wow... that was one heck of a battle. One my last deployment about 2 years ago, we stopped by the Tarawa atoll and had a ceremony honoring the brave men who fought in that battle. I even have a bottle of sand from the beach.

Thank you!

Howdy!! Good to see you here tonight! Didn't snippy do a fantastic thread today?

Hope things are going well out there on the USS TARAWA! I haven't heard from my new friend on the ship this evening but hope to hear from her in a bit.
