Although I was born after WW2, I have been an avid Fan of the great fighting men and women, who served and sacrificed, for us and our great Nation. My Father served in the US Navy from WW2 til 1968, and retired as a Chief Electrician's Mate. I served from 1965 til 1986 retiring as Chief Aviation Machinist's Mate.
