He didn't say much, but he did mention that he never, ever went to a place where there was snow again, because in Korea he had enough cold to last a lifetime.SUEB0Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16301963922769609715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15272457.post-84753086360776409172010-06-04T18:29:59.450-07:002010-06-04T18:29:59.450-07:00Heather Ann I love you so much!!!

And, I mourn my friends who have died everyday.<br /><br />I see the difference between our father's generation and ours. I cry all the time, but when I see my father cry, that's huge. The difference between their military and ours, I guess.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing this story. It's touching and just the thing I needed.fyrchkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01803553527705121368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15272457.post-8121711330450140022010-06-01T16:34:30.484-07:002010-06-01T16:34:30.484-07:00What a great story Heather.
