My dad is my hero. He has been to hell and back and gratefully is still with us. He suffers everyday for the part he played in America's history. He is the man who taught me patriotism, love of country, selfless sacrifice and a deep love for my Savior. I want to be just like him...Thanks dad for being the best dad in the world and for teaching me how to be me! Happy Father's Day!
Dad's Chopper after he was shot down in Viet Nam
My dad being worked on after being pulled from the chopper. He is on the ground on the right. He had is ear shot off, his arm shattered by shrapnel and he had shrapnel lodged in his brain. Very grateful that God blessed him to pull through, or I wouldn't be here. :)
Oh, wow! What an amazing story.
