Kiwanis Club of Bradford’s Memorial Day tribute in window of their Warehouse
Proud to have my Coast Guard uniform included with the uniforms representing the other services. We should all remember the purpose of Memorial Day is to honor those who gave their lives while serving. It is not the same as Armed Forces Day or Veteran’s Day.
I have to tell you right up front. I’m a story teller. After graduation from the Coast Guard Academy in 1957, my twenty-eight years of active duty have given me a lot of fodder. I finally heeded my daughter’s pleas, “Dad, you have got to write those stories down,” and published my memoirs in 1975. Caught up in the writing experience, I moved on to publish a novel in 2019 and I'm continuing to write. It's my new number 1 hobby.
