My Grandpa Jones served in WWII from 1942-1946. He flew a P-51 Mustang over France and Germany. I took this picture during the Memorial Day Parade in 2007. Doesn't he look so sweet?!
This is my dad. I don't know who took it or when exactly, but he was in Vietnam in 1968. I guess its taken in the barracks. He sent this home to my mom in a letter.
And this is my big brother CPT. Zac! He just returned home from Iraq in the beginning of October and I am so proud of him! Now that he's home, this will be the first time in three years my brothers, parents, and I will celebrate the holidays with the whole family home. I am super excited:)
I am so proud of these veterans, and so thankful I still know each of them today. My heart breaks for the families of those lost at Ft. Hood...I can't even imagine...
What an awesome post, Ms McClain. I am proud with you. Three pretty sweet reasons to celebrate.
