My dad served in World War II and subsequently spent his career in the Illinois Army National Guard as a full-timer.
Both of my brothers have served in the Army. This is my youngest sibling, Tom, and regrettably I don't have a photo of Wayne in uniform.
I didn't meet him until years later, but MOAO also served in the Army in the sixties.
I have always been so proud of the Army men in my life and so acutely aware of the fact that freedom is not free...so many have paid so much for the freedoms we all too often take for granted.
This is so wonderful!!! I wish more people
