I am watching the History Channel marathon of "Band of Brothers". What an amazing story of courage and sacrifice for a worthy cause. Unlike the current war without end or even any definition. My Father and his brothers all served to fight the Nazis.
edit to add: I will fight the new Nazi in any shape,form or creed.

4. Well, they had instrument troubles, came back, got another plane |
|
then was never heard from again-after a couple of hours. It could be methane gas, magnetic fields, anything-so he's either at the bottom of the ocean, or in the cosmos-don't know. But, I do feel justified when I complain about the state of things, because my dad gave his life for this country.

On the 50th anniversary of the event, 10/31/2004 (I was in Washington DC during the 2004 elections!) I got him a grave site at Arlington National Cemetery. It was a great service.
