Eric, we owe them too much

to watch our freedom stolen. They paid dearly to preserve it for us. The cost to regain it once lost would be far greater still.

Good on you for posting this.


It's estimated that we lose on average over 1000 WWII vets a day. Those are 2005 numbers. CPO Finn is one of the best of the best from the dwindling ranks of America’s greatest generation.

I can't say it any better than Sue and the others. This makes me proud and you should be proud to have put this up to remind us all of what has been paid for our Republic.

It's too easy to forget! Thanx.
