Courage and Honor


An email from my dad... about my grandpa who is currently in the hospital recovering from surgery on a broken ankle. Love you Grandpa.

~~~~~~~~
In the background, a nondescript European hillside and to the discriminating eye, the tracks of a U.S. Army half-track...an M-3, I think. On the slope below, two happy young men. That’s dad on the left...smiling sixty three years ago on May 8th, 1945—the day Germany formally surrendered.

God bless him.

Krista,

You might have to upload the photo to blogger, instead of linking to the copy in your gmail account.

The rest of us don't have access to your gmail account. :)
