Remember to celebrate, and remember those who fought, and died.

For my Grandfather, whose birthday it is today, served in WW2, Korean, and Vietnam, whose voice was lost to the father in the heavens...

SEMPER FI!

He was a Marine Pilot. I have a propeller that he was able to take home from one of the planes he flew in WW2.

What an awesome keepsake! Reminds me of the MASH episode where Radar shipped home a full Jeep piece by piece.

My dad served on a minesweeper in the Pacific during WW2. After he passed I became a WW2 history fanatic, I regret now never having the chance to hear his stories about it. Like many he kept quiet about the whole thing. After seeing so many of the horrors in documentaries it's understandable.

It's a great day to remember and celebrate the brave stand that some men chose to take 250 years ago, as well as through the years and ongoing!
