I'm sorry about the loss of your friend.

A salute to him and all who unselfishly served!

...and a word of thanks from Belgium. To this American.

Sigh. What an obviously good and nice man. They're going at the rate of 1,500 a day now. If you know a WW II vet, take the time to engage him or her. You'll find it rewarding and they will be very happy.
Thanks for posting. My sympathies for your loss.

My friend, Bill, is with family at his father's funeral today. Bill senior was co-pilot on a B-17G at the end of the War. I never had the opportunity to talk to his father, but Bill junior has heard some of the accounts of his dad's 8th AAF days.

pretty soon none of these vets will still be around, reason the more to keep remembering what they stood for...
