Dad in Vietnam
I found this photo of my father when he was fighting over in Vietnam.

I think it's probably the best photo I've seen of my dad.



Thought I'd share. :)

2. I love it!
I have a picture of my dad - a black and white candid - from when he was in the army in San Antonio TX as a very young man. I wasn't born until he was already much older and that picture captures something magical for me, too. It's like a piece of him was frozen in time just for me.

Enjoy your picture and thanks for sharing. :)

7. I love that picture of you.
You can really smile with your eyes yet you look very tired.
