Where in Germany where you stationed?
Thanks for the warm welcome! I figured you all were running a nut house...that's why I joined up!My husband is originally from Ontario, Canada and immigrated to the US when he was 9 years old. His father was a pilot in the King's RCAF during WWII. We have some amazing photographs of the planes and his medals. My husband was in the US Army infantry. He spent a majority of his career with the 101st Airborne. I am from South Dakota and ran away to join the Navy. I ended up in Rota, Spain in a C-130 squadron and after my tour I traveled Europe and returned to the states and joined the Army and returned to Germany for 5 years. I was in an ADA unit. I have a 12 year old son and he loves the museum he lives in. I actually live in a "man cave" and love it. We do have some interesting WWII items. I will post pics when I can. That's about it guys! Whew!
I have been busy digging through my late father-in-law's papers and medals. I have found a few items that will give me a good history of the man. My husband told me that he was a quiet man and he didn't discuss his experiences often.Me too, and welcome from another Canuck. I grew up in Toronto and my wife is from southern Ontario.
What squadron was your father in law with and what did he do?
Please do!
