    In 1996 the VA asked my Uncle Frank to give his account of WWII in a short story. There are 16 pages here and he really did a great job in his usual style of art. Funny thing was, all the years I was growing up, never once did I hear my soft spoken uncle cuss... haha this short story certainly makes up for it ;)

    I do hope you are able to see the full photos when you click on them and they are able to be read.

    I want to say thank you to all our veterans and families here for your service. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't be here as we are today!

    Thank you so much!
