Who are you?son of a WWII vet
Where you from?Citrus Heights, California
Are you a Veteran?yes
MessageMy Dad was a WWII vet ( Philippines and Australia ) but passed away over 10 years ago. My wife and myself have been to DC twice. Once just after the WWII memorial opened and again in Sept 2009. I feel blessed to have been able to go there and see the memorial. We need to get as many of the vets there as we can. With the WWII vets getting older, there isn't a lot of time left. That isn't meant to be morbid but is to express the urgentcy of the situation.

MessageA very BIG THANK YOU 1st to our vets of all US conflicts, next to Capt. Earl Morse (USAF Ret.) for starting this organization & finally to Tom for running the NorCal hub.

Who are you?Earl Daggett
Where you from?Originall Boston, Ma.
Are you a Veteran?Yes WWII U.S. Navy Amphibious Force
MessageI was a ships Cook serving on an LST For those of you who do not know what an LST is just picture the movies you've seen of the invasion - the large ships on the beach with bow doors open are LST's = Landing Ship Tanks. Or, as we used to call them "Large Slow Targets" since with flat bottoms we had a top speed of only about 30 knots

We participated in the invasions of Saipan and Tinian in the Marianas and Pellelieu in the Palau group.

I would love to see the Memorial. I am 85 yrs old and able to get around on my own without the eed of help from gUARDIAN

Who are you?Retired Navy Storekeeper Chief
Where you from?Boston, MA/ San Diego,CA
Are you a Veteran?12/24/42 - 6/01/66
Messagesmilie I was a member of an advanced Supply Group, sent to Milne Bay, New Guinea and later Samar, in the Philippies. We loaded and unloaded ships from New Zealand and Australia ferrying supplies to the forward combat zones. Since segregation was still in full bloom, I witnessed Race Riots in both Islands. Very sad to see friends die only because of color. I am 85 now and have never been able find any discussions of what the Navy Supply Units contributed to the War Effort. Also, I wonder if there is still anyone "out ther" who was in Milne Bay NG or Samar PI, 1944-45. Only two of us left, that I know of.
