I think of both my grandfathers service everyday but especially on Veterans and Memerial day. They have since passed on but served thier country proudly during WWII. One served with the Armys 81st ID in Pelilui and during the occupation of Japan. My other grandfather served in the Armys 68th anti aircraft battalion in the North African Campaign, Sicily, Monte Cassino, Anzio, Southern France up to Germany to name a few. 7 battle stars and 4 D day invasions over that time. Its a blessing he made it out of Anzio, Not many men did after being pinned to the beaches and shelled for 3 months straight.
God bless em all they are better men than i will ever be.
