Here's a salute to those who served in my family:
My Dad, Navy, South Pacific,WWII
My Father-in-Law, Army, European Theater, WWII
My Oldest Brother, Navy 1960's
My Cousin, Navy 1960's
My Nephew, Army, currently training as a bomb removal tech.
My Oldest son, Army, two tours of Iraq out and thru hiking the AT right now!!!!

My draft board put me on hold in 1972 and abolished the draft a year later. I thought of joining the Navy but my Dad talked me out of it...said I didn't like taking orders from him what made me think I could stand 4 years of everyone telling me what to do...come to think of it that was the only time I listened to my father when I shouldn't have!!
