My Great-Grandfather lived through the Second World War, but died quite a few years ago, I think I was only three or four years old when he passed away, so I didn't know him so well. Regardless;

Honours go to him:

My (American) grandfather served in WWII, and my father served during Vietnam. My father died on Memorial Day in 1995, so this is a double remembrance from me.

To all of my family in WW2, I am proud to share your blood. To those that are no longer with us, I miss you.
