Ditto the thanks.

My uncle told us about standing next to and watching his best buddy get a shell through the midsection ... and more about the surprise and the carnage that dreadful day. There was never a doubt that he bore his burden gladly and with love for family and country.

Walking the Arizona memorial was almost surreal for me - I looked at the names on the wall wondering which one was my uncle's friend. And I found, more than once on that wall, a series of names who were related - brothers, cousins .... We did not just lose men on that day, we lost families.

God bless and keep every single one, and we who care will keep their memory.

One of my grandfathers was 2nd Day Normandy and was a POW when captured behind enemy lines. I always wonder how he felt... He died when I was two as a result of lingering injuries related to the war.

:asian: for those that served.
