While he's not a member of this board, this guy also deserves to be honored.

He's my dad and he's still alive and kicking at 86 years old!

He walked all the way from Naples to the Swiss border in WWII and never runs out of funny or interesting stories to tell :)

Thanks to all the vets here on FORVM for their service!

Those guys all took great pics back then! I look like a class A goob in all my dress pics from when I was in the army! lol

Thank you to all our current and former military men and women who grace this board.

We should also thank our host for his service, even if it was the Navy.  Thank you Joe for your service from a 20yr AF vet.

Regards
Pete Peters

PS, Mark you look like your Dad and Chris is right they took great pictures back then, I have one downstairs of my father who is still with us at 89 he ran into his brother on Luzon and got  a great picture of them together.
