My thanks to all, living or deceased then or now, who served, lived or died in Pearl Harbor.
My thoughts turn to my Dad, long gone, and those who allowed each of us to be what we are. |

My dad was injured critically on Iwo Jima with a massive head injury. He survived and he is 86 and still with me. In fact he climbed all over the USS Texas with me last year. His generation will never be equaled. They gave great sacrifice and never asked for anything back. Wish that was a trait that existed today.

We are all very proud of his service and of all others who served as well. That generation accomplished so much, and in my view, won't be equalled again. |
