Always in my heart

My dad was in the
Air Force. We were stationed in Japan. We lived on Kanto Mura military housing when I began wearing my Jeffery Lemon bracelet. I was in the eighth grade. I wore it for decades. I have never ever forgotten his name. I have wondered about him and prayed for him for decades.
Grateful to be able to see photos for the first time, after over fifty years! Thank you for this opportunity. It meant a lot to read other's memories as well.
Thank you for your service Jeffery. You were never forgotten.

I separated from the Air Force after our first tour. He stayed in and volunteered for Vietnam.
