My dad loved this Country, He loved it so much that he Dedicated 27 years of his life Defending it, He Defended it with Honor and Passion, He did 3 tours in Vietnam. As most Vets, He didn't talk much about Nam the bits and pieces I would hear was when his Nam buddies were around.
I lost My Dad on 29 Aug 1997, At the age of 61, That day was the only time my wife saw me shed a tear, I lost my best friend and HERO that day, and now some 15 years later ( as of next weds) I still think of him EVERY day and Miss him.
Thanks Dad for help mold me into the man I am today. I LOVE YOU!!!!
