Good bless all the troops, but today especially the WWII troops that went around the world in a time when people rarely left their own state to defend our freedom!

I agree, God Bless them all, but especially the WWII soldiers. If any of you are interested, go to this website. It's about the invasion of Attu, the only time that the U.S. was actually invaded by foreign troops during WWII. The DVD is available for purchase.

My Uncle, Bill Jones, narrarates the film, and was one of the survivors of the battle (and several others throughout the Pacific). It brings to light one of the forgotten battles of WWII. Our WWII vets are dying off at the rate of 1500 per day. Thank one while you still can!
