Ramble all you want, we`ve never had to contact Ramblers Anonymous yet but there may be a few candidates around here. 
Please let your father know that there are many people, old & young alike, not just here on this forum but throughout the US that will never forget the sacrafices all our veterens made in preserving the freedoms we have and will continue to pass this on to future generations, and in Europe where the people of France, Belgium, the Netherlands & other countries have for generations adopted
& cared for the graves of our young men who fell in the liberation of their countries. They will not forget & thirst for knowledge of who those young men were, where they came from and what they did.
For us, every veterens story is an important piece of the knowledge quest that helps us understand.
Also, a Thank You to your son for his service to our country. Please keep us posted about his duty in Iraq, we have forum members serving in Iraq at this time and we extend an invitation for him to join this forum if he has internet access.
