Have not been able to make my self go there. I could go to Fort Bliss where my father and mother are buried, but just can't go to the Wall. I have lived with in 30 miles of it for 20 years and just can't.
My Dad was a Navy Cross winner from Pearl, he was on the Okie, and later in WWII also got the Navy Marine medal on the Nevada also. The 2 highest you can get in the Navy below the Congressional Medal of Honor. Almost always to those that died getting them. He beat the odds twice.
Aud I'm the same way. I know a couple that didn't walk off the plane. Part of me wants to go. The other part doesn't want to know how many gave all. That way I can go on believing they got back safe. 🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷
