Len Drucker, 1280th Engineer Bn, Co C, recently had the honor and pleasure of visiting the WWII Memorial as part of the Honor Flight program Len sent me the newspaper article which was printed in a local Chicago area newspaper (Northbrook Community). He also sent me a wonderful CD which contained filmed footage of the entire event from his house with his buddy to DC and back to the the airport in Chicago where he received a wonderful welcome home. Very inspiring. I will have the footage posted within the next couple of days, but right now will share the article and photo.
God bless ya Len!
