I am truly honoured to be in the company of such gentlemen as those who are members of this forum. My Dad, who is still alive, served in WW 2. I can honestly say that he was one of the lucky ones who came out of the ordeal unscathed in all aspects. I am very proud of him. I am also very proud to be a member of an organization in which people like wayne and teverson-sr can respect the opinion of each other in such an open-minded manner. Although I am a Canadian, if members care to read my post dated 07-01-2011, entitled, "A Canadians's Observations of Americans", they will understand why America means so much to me.
