My thanks to all who served, and in particular to any of my own Internet friends and acquaintances who may read this.
Walter Rybeck, a friend of mine and a veteran of World War Two, was alive last Veterans Day, but is no longer with us. Professor Mason Gaffney, another World War Two veteran, was alive two years ago, but no longer. My own maternal grandfather, Roger Harlepp, who fought in the Second World War, has been dead for almost twenty-five years. May they all rest in honored peace.
