M, I've been remiss in bringing up/noting all your WWII memories. Were you one of our heroes in past years? A history buff of the times? Anyway, Thank You!!

Welp, I am a history fan, & that's some history there.
Nobody's hero, but if not for WWII I wouldn't exist, as my parents surely wouldn't have met otherwise. And my father was on a ship at Pearl Harbor (when the Japanese attacked) & continued to be involved in the whole mess. (I think looking into his [or his ships'] activities was what led me to the site from which I steal this stuiff.)
Also a good way to guarantee oneself a daily item. Can be scheduled yrs. in advance.
