WWII and Korean Memorials

Two wars that are not taught in public school American history classes these days.  It is sad to see all the kids on school trips, dressed in matching T-shirts, that do not really appreciate all that their grandfathers did to give them the freedom they take for granite.  My Dad fought in the Philippines and served in Japan after the end of the Great War.  I won't ever forget the sacrifices made so that I can enjoy what freedoms we have left in the USA today.  Thanks, Dad.

Freedom Is Not Free 

WWII Memorial Entrance 

Victory at Sea and Victory on Land

FDR's speech on Pearl Harbor

Americans Came to Liberate,

Not to Conquer,

To Restore Freedom 

And to End Tyranny

And that is the reason we have fought so many wars on foreign soil.
