May we never forget the sacrifices of our servicemen on this day. They were truly our "Greatest Generation" They are to be remembered and honored forever!

The sailors who died in the attack of Pearl Harbor led the list of the fallen. I have the utmost dignity and respect for your Dad having to be put in a hopeless and helpless situation and survive it.
The Greatest Generation they were indeed. Here is my favorite picture of Dad taken at Pearl Harbor in 1944.
He did not go ashore at Omaha Beach, but I couldn't be prouder of him. He served with distinction and without complaint.
