It's like Memorial Day around here. Very few seem to be aware that we always have a Memorial Day service held every year in one of our local parks. Sad to see the numbers in attendance seem to be dwindling.
Keep your chin up and fight the good fight!
Regards!
This was in 1995. As I recall, it was the 50 year anniversary of the end of the war, and my dad made headlines on the local paper, I don't remember exactly what he said, but it was something like: "NAVAL VETERAN DEFENDS USE OF A-BOMB, SAYS WE SHOULD HAVE DROPPED MORE"
No joke. Heh, he said he meant every word of it, too. Sigh. He only had a few more years left after that, but they were good ones. How I miss him.
