Thanks- I would be but I'm proud of my own Dad- the officer who took the picture of MG Howze. My Dad was the Transportation Officer of the Korean Military Advisory Group (KMAG) to the 1st ROK Division in Wonju.

My misinterpretation. You still should be proud of your dad for being there doing his service for our country. Also for recognizing and photographing a man with this insight for modern warfare.

My Dad. He began his career in the CCC Corps in 1936. His goal was to become a Major.

Almost 20,000 Japanese elderly people over 90 introduced in 1925.
Ms. Fute Aida looks the eldest at 111. Today's eldest in Japan is still in the 110s. Age around this would be a limitation.

I remember these from my youth. Usually we used wooden medieval swords in shape that each had to make yourself.
