Met a WWII Fighter Pilot tonight ***UPDATE
Gary, I really like reading your post. We see these 'old timers' and I always offer to help if I can without it making it sound like charity but as a thank you. But I do that with every veteran I see. I, too, was at the Dodge dealer getting an oil change. This 88 year old Marine sat outside with me while we waiting. He was soooo humble. I paid for his oil change for his 1978 Dodge Power Wagon D200 before I left and didn't tell him. Clean as the day he bought it. He was a proud, humble, widowed man. It was a honor to spend 30 minutes with him.
