My Hero - My Dad

On September 10, 2014 my dad was honored as a Korean War Peace Ambassador at the Utah State Capitol.  He was presented with a beautiful medal and certificate, along with a large book containing pictures of the Korean War.

Dad was a tender young man from Meadow, Utah when he was thrown into the violent Battle of Inchon Harbor.  He has repressed many memories throughout his life since this war, but the nightmares have remained.  We who are blessed to live in this free country must always be grateful to those brave people who have fought for our freedoms.  There are those who have protected us and there are those who continue to protect us.  I thank God for their unselfish service to the citizens of the United States of America.

Thank you Dad.  I love you.
