Pais,
My Dad also served. He was an officer, two purple hearts...didn't talk about his experiences much. He served in the Phillipines, New Guinea, and other places. He has since passed away.
All of those brave men and women were heros. I started this thread because I wanted others to remember what they did for us.
If some posters take a moment of silence to pay homage, that's ok...but not nearly enough to recall what they gave. Heros all.
