My mother was in the WAVES as well... based in Charleston, SC during WWII. God rest her soul... she would have been 90 years old this December.

My father was a sergeant in the Army in the Pacific Theater... saw lots of action in Guadalcanal, Solomon Islands, Philippines, etc. God rest his soul... he'd be 94 this year.
