LIberalism is a disease..
While at Lidls today with the wife I struck up a conversation with a WW11 Navy Vet wearing a DAV T-shirt and sporting a pair of Canadian Walkers ( crutches). This old warrior had to have been 6'6" and could have passed for Celtics great Bill Russell's twin. I thanked him for his service, and he stated that he and his brother had both joined 0n 8 Dec, 1941 and immediately teared up as he revealed that his brother never made it back..He was quick to tell me that the real " heros" never made it back! He went on to explain that he had seen action on several ships and was wounded in the South Pacific and thanked me for my service.
What an absolute pleasure....
He was 96 years old!
A salute to you sir as one of the truely " greatest generation"!
