82nd Airborne Memorial

I really don't know much about my father,
but the stories I heard from my grandmother Rubye was that he loved his pancakes.

If they weren't uniform in shape I guess all heck broke out ...
they had to be perfectly round in shape or they weren't edible.



His name appears on the 82nd Airborne Memorial at Fort Bragg, NC ...
it is marked by a black dot on the photograph.




A memorial from his daughter,
