While my dad was living, Veteran's Day was always very important to him. He was proud of having served in the Army Corp of Engineers. I wrote a little about him in a previous blog post.
I thought I would just post some pictures from when he was in Europe in WWII. Hope you enjoy.

If you got here before I caught it, I have dyslexic moments. I have reversed Lester and T4 Good. I sure hope someone will see these pictures that might recognize the men.
