For My Uncle

Being in the navy and stationed on a ship, I found one of the ships officers was wearing a POW bracelet. She told me that the Naval Academy gave the bracelets out.

This one carries the name of my uncle. He died when I was 5. I was fortunate enough to find a buddy of his on another web site, and have connected the dots of his time in the service and in country. I also found how he died. I wanted something to remember him, other than the short memory I carry with me. This is perfect.

A very nice tribute to a family hero!
