That's an amazing story do you have his medals as well? If you do any museum would take your arm off to display them. "In Flanders fields the poppies blow, Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place: and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,Loved, and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders fields."

Superb Butch, thanks for that. Anything WW1 & 2 I find facinating. The brave souls that fought and the technological development that happened between 1914 and 1945 was amazing.
