Stuff I do while Truckin

We really appreciate your photos and travelogue. We have visited Arlington and the VN Wall several times.

We were at Arlington for the burial of my uncles remains in the early nineties. He was my Dad's youngest brother, was in the 82nd Airborne in WWII and was killed in Operation Market Garden after parachuting in, and fighting for several days before he lost his life. He was listed as MIA for almost 50 years, until his remains were discovered in a field near "A bridge too far" at Arnhem, Netherlands, where the battle took place. Being there, with my Dad and extended family, when he was buried in Arlington with full military honors, was one the most moving experiences of my life. My Dad and another of his brothers, who both served in the infantry WWII, were present for the funeral and burial.

Tony, your photos brought back a flood of memories. THANK YOU.
