Baller_ Bruce_Butterfield Posted November 11, 2021 Baller_ Share Posted November 11, 2021 All gone, but not forgotten. My Dad on the right, his 2 brothers and 1 sister in 1945. A very different time back then. If it was easy, they would call it Wakeboarding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller KKelly Posted November 11, 2021 Baller Share Posted November 11, 2021 This is the father of a girl I dated in the late 80's. He was 56 and I was 25 when we met. The girl was short lived but my friendship with him has lasted through the years. He's 89 now and not in the best health. This picture is before he went to Korea.

Baller Skoot1123 Posted November 12, 2021 Baller Share Posted November 12, 2021 A few of my great uncles were in WWII and in the Korean War. One great uncle was Day Day +1 (medic), one served in Italy as a gunner, and the other flew planes (Grumman torpedo plane if I’m not mistaken) - he is now 101 years young. Thankful for them all!!
