July 12-13 & 14, I will be providing logistical support to the 9th Infantry Division Association 66th Annual Reunion in New Orleans...

It is my late father's old outfit... just some of the boys who hit those beaches that are still alive and kicking, (and their extended families)

... a testament to just how tough those young men were who participated in the beachhead, and survived the invasion and acted as the Allied fulcrum to the defeat of Germany in 1945...

For those who have no idea... we are losing our WW2 veterans at the rate of 1200 to 1800 a day...

Heroes... every one!
