Honoring Our Veterans

Dad was younger than all his grandson's when he went off to fight in World War II. All these guys were that young! It amazes me and I am so grateful to them and for the freedom and they fought to save.

I guess they took
some time out to
have a little fun..
look at those physique's!















Looks just like Benji! 









Uncle
Mel
never changed!























Cute girls always wait for their
guys! I'm sure glad this one did!














Families waited anxiously at home
to receive letters..no email then.
sometimes the letters would be 3 months old and could be censored!

    Love these pictures! Grandpa looks so much like a mixture of Benj, my dad and Tyler.

    Holy cow. I saw the second picture and thought how much he looked like Benji, then I saw on the third picture you thought it also. Crazy.
