I am thinking of my father quite a bit on this Veterans Day. He served in World War II in the south Pacific, a member of the Quartermaster Corps. He never talked about it much until very late in life. Dad was relatively safe during the war, working on supplying ships with food. The toughest thing for him was being away from home. He did not travel much after that experience.
He was proud of his service, and on this Veterans Day I want to say how proud I am of all who served and continue to serve in the military.
Hi David,
I just dropped by to say hi. You know I’m subscribed to your site so I get to read every post you punish. I think post is very emotive and wanted to pay my respects to all the veterans too, although I was born in Venezuela but now I’m living in Spain. I spent 6 years in the US, and I keep fond memories of my time there.
It’s great to read about your dad. Keep it up, David, you know I love your work ?
Thank you, Frank.
