    More of my father-in-law’s stories of the Korean War can be found here.

    Three times he almost didn’t get home, before my wife was a gleam in his eye.

    I was wandering about in diapers at the time.

    Fascinating little personal slices of experience.  I wish I had asked my grandfather to write his stories down, or transcribed his tales.

    I asked him over 20 years ago; he deflected the questions. I figure veterans often don’t want to talk about it and let him be. But he started responding to email questions last year. I hope he gets around to telling how he won the bronze star.
