dark light

V-E Day May 8th 1945 !

Just a note of deep thanks to those of my fathers generation for what they accomplished on this day ,which now seems light years ago! A special note of thanks for our great Allies , The forces of Great Britain and Commonwealth forces for halting the evil of Nazi Germany. You stood alone in the darkest days of this global war. As a younger veteran I salute those who gave their all and remember their sacrifice. Thinking today about my fellow Americans who remain behind in military cemeterys across Europe. I wish I could go out today to the cemetery in Cambridge,home to so many men from the Mighty
Eighth and Ninth Army Air Forces. Hope some Mustangs and Spifires make a pass over this sacred ground today and offer a salute to those who have gone before us !
