First of all, I want to thank you for your service. I have enjoyed reading your stories. I also want to thank you for inspiring me to create a blog for my dad, a WWII pilot. Before he passed away in '99 I had him dictate some of his war stories on cassette tapes. Years later I reduced them to CDs. I wanted to do something special with them but didn't know what...until I started researching on the internet and stumbled across your blog and others. The stories you wonderful gentleman told were amazing and I am so humbled. Thank you for your inspiration to do something special for my dad. I think he would have liked it. Here is the site. I would be most honored to have you as a follower. www.charlie-boychronicles.blogspot.com. It's still in its infancy. I blog excerpts (verbatim) from the CDs along with letters to home and also pictures I have found in scrapbooks in the attic. I feel like sometimes he's looking over my shoulder and smiling. I really miss him. Thanks again Sol.

Quite<br />probably , Veterans never forget ...<br />they simply suppress their memories<br />of wartime experiences.
