re: #59 Anymouse 🌹

My sincere condolences on your father’s loss.

In my father’s hometown was held a memorial service for those fallen in Vietnam.

I have never attended one of these as they didn’t start doing them until after the last time I was there in 1984.

Thanks. My mom has only been to the grave twice, once during the funeral and the second time a few years ago when Mrs Cranky and I took her to visit the grave (and to see the headstone which wasn’t available at the time of the funeral). The photo was taken during that visit. My brother lives closer and has been to several of the events at Arlington. It’s difficult for my mom (she lives in Nashville) but my brother often visits and takes photos of both the grave and some of the events.

Oh and my dad would have absolutely detested Trump. My mom certainly does. ;-)
