[303rd-Talk] TAPS

[James L. Hargrove, Ph.D.]

Thank you, Jerry.  I am a son of a bombardier and know exactly what you mean.

I was able to get part of Dad's story in the Hells Angels newsletter and it was
on his hospice table when he passed along.  What they went through, we all
heard something about but it was they who lived it.

Heroes. Every blessed one.  I am sorry to hear we have lost another of these
bravest of the brave.
