Thank you

I would like to thank my Uncle Peter and all of the other brave servicemen for their ultimate sacrifice.

I would also like to thank Sonny for sharing some of his childhood memories.

I am also thankful to my cousin Diana for helping me to find a better picture of our uncle so that I could upload it and honor him.
