Memorial Day - Let us never forget!

wish i had a story to share, but few in my family served (several of my uncles did on both sides)
closest to something interesting i could share is one solitary picture ive seen at my grandmothers home
it was of a man, who was clearly my great grandfather on my fathers side, installing a window in what i assume is a concentration camp building, as a german officer watched over him

i've always wanted to ask what the story was behind that picture, but i never brought up the courage to ask and my grandmother passed away several months ago.

but i ramble, i mostly posted here to say thank you for those men and women who served, and their fathers, mothers spouses and children who had to do without them

and to invite our fellow members to share their stories (if they would be inclined to do so, i know many dont like to talk about it, and that fine)
if there is anyone here old enough to have been a part of operation Market Garden (i believe that was spearheaded by the 82nd and 101st airborne divisions) i owe you a special debt of gratitude the village i was born in, the city i went to high school and the city i went to college were all liberated out of German control during that operation
