Sorry to hear your dad has taken his final flight. He will truly be missed. Deepest Condolences.

“...Not looking back to ask the reason why
Our plane is set along this course,
Gladly we shall go, unsullied by remorse;
Nor blaming now the mundane evils of the past
Or that idolatry which planned our flight; we die
To live enthroned forever with the fold
That dwells immortal in the Halls of great Valhalla.
Long-dormant Viking hearts awake at last -
We take in hands as bold as those of old
The helm of our own destiny; and for our vast
Ocean of adventure, instead of waves, the boundless sky.
Once more, inviolate, erect and proud
As those who never down to tyranny have bowed.
On wings of valour. Woden-borne, we fly. “

(Wings of Valour - Anon)

Condolences to you on your loss.

Your dad was a great man. worthy of veneration.

It sounds like he probably was inspired by the Great Generation, those who served in WWII.

Thank you for his Vietnam diary link.

Condolences, good guy.

More a lurker here anymore, but he was fine and that life of his, definitely a well lived one.

Glad your parents had you and that you’re here.

So sorry for your terrible loss.

Our hope is in the Lord that

one day we will all be reunited

in heaven where every tear will be

wiped away and there will be

no more suffering.

God Bless you and your entire family.

So sorry. My sainted mother told me often how surprised she was that her father didn’t live to be 100, as he told everyone he would. She didn’t either, but she did get closer than he.

God bless you and your family, IT. Offering sincere condolences following the loss of your dear father. I recall your dad's remarkable research and sharing his findings following Hurricane Katrina. He will be missed.

Keep the faith. {{{hugs}}}

Lord God, Jesus Christ, rest the soul of Thy servant Ben with the saints and the angels.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, amen.
