My Father's Cousin (WWII Vet) Turned 100

The family had a party for him at the assisted living facility where he is living. Everyone showed up to congratulate him. Harold's still sharp as a tack, and had a wonderful time.

I wanted to share some photos because the highlight of the day was when he received a congratulatory letter from the President. He's also supposed to have the flag that flew over the Capitol yesterday delivered to him. Harold commanded a platoon in Italy in 1944. He's a really fantastic guy.
