Good for your Dad.

There are fewer veterans from WWII every year. My FIL served in the Navy at
that time, (but not at Normandy). He earned a medal for valor by commanding a
small boat that made repeated runs through enemy fire to resupply the army
troops ashore. Funny thing was, his own kids didn't even know about it until he
got out his letter of commendation and award and made copies for all of them a
year or so ago.

Hats off toyour Dad and the other veterans.
