Thanks, Marion. I enjoy Dad's memories very much. For the last several years I have taken notes and have written down details and asked him the same questions on several occasions to make sure his recall was accurate and to make sure I understood correctly. My notes are difficult to follow, even for me. Dad will be the first to admit that his memory is not what it used to be, it used to be amazing. I don't know if he just didn't care to talk about some things or I just didn't show enough interest but in the last years he has shared a lot with me. That was a huge war and the view of it from the 160th is a narrow slice but I am sure that other men saw many of the same things that Dad did. God bless them all.
