John Hardly, thank you for that song. Tears won't stop for all the postings. Here resides the best of humanity and I am reminded, once again, of this miracle called Mudcat.

LR Mole, I was so grateful the day my son passed beyond the usual age of draft. May you, too, see that day come and go with no cause for concern.

Thank you, Norton1. Sorry about your father-in-law. I had one uncle kill himself a few years ago directly because of what he experienced as a Marine during WWII.
