I honor my Dad and my husband.

My Dad served in the Korean, as well as the Viet Nam War.  He was in military intelligence and worked as a civilian with the Chinese during the Viet Nam War.  I had to wait 25 years before his work was declassified to find out about his mission there. Amazing stuff.

My husband got the Bronze Star for his service in Viet Nam.  He also was in military intelligence.  While serving, he was able to intercept and decode enemy transmissions. His decoding of their communications saved thousands of American lives.

I honor them both for their bravery and for their patriotism.
