Losing Friends From War

I had lost, a good friend of mine in Korea was killed, a very close friend. He wasn’t killed in action. We was killed, he was called a dispatch rider who would take a message from one unit to the other by jeep. He would travel at night, of course, he went off the road and was killed over there. So that’s a memory every year. And I’ve known, you know Second War people from my town that went and never came back. My wife’s brother died in Italy. He was killed by a sniper in Italy. Yeah, November the 11th I was involved quite a bit at one time, I was heavily involved in the Legion at one time in Minto. I was president of the branch and district commander so I used to attend a lot of different places and November 11th, I’d try to get as many as I could and just lately the young people are taking an interest, you know, and I mean big time, even in Minto you see them out, you know, which is a heartwarming moment for us, you know.
