[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 251817, member: 59"] RM what a touching story and it is apparent how proud you are of your Dad. Just to clarify, neither my Dad nor any of the other people I ever talked to glorified the war. It was really like pulling teeth to get him to talk about it, I just asked a lot of questions. He spent five years in Europe and Africa. He came home with a very serious drinking problem which almost detroyed our family. I suspect I will be very sad when I hear those same taps and am handed that folded flag. He is 89 now and I just expect him to always be here. Nancy [/QUOTE]
