Thanks PansGold.

My 91 y/o dad(still here and well) was a Tech in the Army's
532 Amphibious engineers. 3 combat landings on New Guinea
and 1 with the Invasion of the Philippines. He was awarded
a Purple Heart for the latter landing.

I'm proud of the old boy...

My dad would have been 91 last April. He was in CBI and in the early stages of the Occupation of Japan. God bless them all.
