Veterans Day 2010

My Dad was in the Korean War, he was in Korea when I was born.  He spent a cold miserable winter there without proper boots or clothing.  I think he still moves his toes all night long..to keep them from freezing.  Sometimes the snow would cover the foxholes just like a blanket and he would have to dig himself out in the morning.

My Dad on the right and one of his friends, this was taken in the Enlisted Club in Tokyo, Japan where he was sent on R and R.

I would like to thank all the Soldiers in my life, my Dad, my husband, my baby brother and my nephew.  Army, Air Force and Navy Veterans. My nephew is presently active duty in the Navy. Happy Veterans Day to all the soldiers out there! :)
