Thank you for sharing this. Please thank your father for his service in Pearl Harbor WWII. I had the honor of being on the USS Guam during the 50th anniversary of D-Day, held in Cherbourg France in 1994. It was so great to see the veterans of that time & era. One of the Captains in the Marines, father was there flown in to join the celebration. He was a Army soldier in the front lines of battle. I was also honored that my grandfather was in that war as well, in the front lines on Omaha Beach. Again please thank you father for the ultimate sacrifice to our country & to the American people. God Bless
