Memories for Memorial Day

My father, Jack, was a Navy Veteran.  Here's a picture of Jack and Peggy, after they got married at age 19, in a small war-time ceremony.  Daddy was in his dress blues.  Mama was in a pretty navy blue and white dress.

 



They met at a USO dance.  Isn't that romantic?

I think they could have modeled for the USO poster.

(Wow! This trip down memory lane is making me reach for a Kleenex....)

Have a wonderful weekend celebrating this grand Memorial Day Holiday!  Take a minute to remember and be grateful for the wonderful lives of freedom and prosperty that we enjoy.  Remember the men and women now serving and those who, throughout the years, sacrificed to make it all possible.

Have a happy and safe Memorial Day,

    Lovely photo of your parents and a nice tribute for Memorial Day. They DO look like they modeled for the poster. :-)
