I was cleaning out some old stuff a couple of days ago and found this 21 year old newspaper article about my Dad's WWII Airborne Unit. He had written a journal about the crossing of the Rhine which I had previously posted: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=41435

My Dad organized this reunion and is shown as the third from the right. The gentleman on the far left is Ray. He used to visit us frequently. I don't think any of these men survive today.

An excellent article Dan. These were brave men, without a doubt. However, the young men that constitute our Army, Air Force, Navy and Marines today have proved equally brave. I agree with the quote by Jim Wittenmyer, "My biggest objection to [modern fights] is that they go into these things and don't intend to win." Thank you for posting.
