A soldier and his bride...
I'm not one to get sentimental about war, especially in times like this. But I always think of my grandfathers on Veterans Day - both fought in WWII, though on different fronts and with far different experiences and residual effects. My paternal grandpa (Grandpa Stertz, pictured here with my grandmother) fought in the Pacific, as a Marine, and experienced horrors that I hope never to know. So, thanks Grandpa Stertz and Grandpa Closser, now safe at Home. I'm grateful - and I miss you.
