    Thank you for the welcome. I myself am from Rhode Island. My interest in The War stems from my Grandfather..who served in the 29th Infantry. He was among the first wave to land on Omaha. I recall myself and my cousin as small children..rummaging thru boxes in our grandparent's basement..and finding the many things that he brought back. It was the greatest of treasure hunts. How I wish I had some of those things now. Sadly..some..(patches mostly) were lost to childish ignorance.

    Oh how many of us are in the same spot looking back at all the treasures we once held in our hands.

    Rhode Island is one of the greatest places I visited in the U.S. I loved Newport and Providence. I used to hang out in a club called the Rocket , I saw some great concerts there :cool:
