Lest we forget. The fellow on the far left and right - my Papa. The only picture I have of him in uniform. Trained pilots for the war. The most humble an...d loving man (along with my dad) I have ever known. I have so much gratitude for those who have served. Who have sacrificed so that my family and I can enjoy FREEDOM. I have the ultimate gratitude and respect especially for those who laid down their lives to fight for their country, and for freedom. And for their families who had to endure that loss. Their legacy and their ultimate sacrifice lives on in our memories. I choose to remember them and feel respect, admiration and gratitude for them. Thank you to all those who have served, and who do serve, for our country and our freedoms. I love where I live. See more
