Thank you David! My dad passed away 11 years ago and is buried at the Saratoga National Cemetary. He did not share much o.about his time in the service, only how proud he was to serve. I wish I knew more but it was great of you to share this information ! I am so curious about it all.

"You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs. Victory in spite of all terrors. Victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival."Winston Churchill
