John, you crack me up! This was a great way to begin my day. The words below are from John McAuliffe. Note the wine glasses on the table. :pidu:

John Bowen just emailed his sentiments:

 

"The caption of this photo should be: Let Sleeping Dogs (dogfaces) lie."

 

Bowen, that was a good one! :frown:

Here's the latest from our fellow board member and WWII veteran, Jim Davis. There is also an article to read regarding this trip to Europe.

 

===========

 

Thanks for the kind words. A lot of people thought it insane to let an 85 year old wander around Europe by himself. But I did it and made it.

 

Here is a look and some pictures.

 

Aloha,

Jim

Hello Jim; Very nice article above. You was in the sameplace I was only different

localities and DIFFERENT JOBs. The cause was the same. I left Italy Sept.'45

on points. I guess you have read, I was in the 1st Bn. 135th Inf Regt. 34th div.

We both,(you and I}, had jobs to do and we did them well. Rocky

M-1 Thank you for posting this pic, I wish I could have

taken a pic of the bike riders that were there. Over fifty

motorcyles all lined up. The Marines gave us,(G.I.Forum)

a very nice welcome. One had enough strengh to put

his arm on my shoulder. rocky--

 

thanks again-- :armata_PDT_37:

"Mr. Squirrel",

 

You ARE a handsome devil. We should just put you on TV selling anti-aging products and the money would start rollin' in!

 

Mr. Davis is another one. Yikes! I get nervous now if I have to drive into Boston by myself, I can't imagine traveling around Europe at 85.
