Hi Diane,

Off the top of my head, I would think he'd be very honoured and touched to know you care enough to learn what he experienced ... he'd be proud to call you daughter and be glad that you appreciate his service.

My one Uncle in particular, Ed, never got to experience being a "guest" .... but he did get to experience being a POW briefly right after D-Day ... then was executed along with many others June 8, 1944. I'm glad your Dad made it home to have a family and ... I'm glad you're finding out about his wartime experiences. Some of the stories must hurt to hear. If anything, as daughter, it sure helps to know and understand Dad better, and thats ALWAYS an awesome thing I'll be following this thread with great interest.

Must go now ... It's late and I'm really tired.

Oh ... by the way, I'm no expert on anything ... was a total civi and militarily ignorant when i joined here ... I slowly get educated on many things

Take care.
