If I could raise one, I'd join you.

I have an uncle who is a highly decorated WWII vet, served in the Pacific. Mainly in the Phillipines, but was briefly stationed at Pearl Harbor before the attack. He was a sniper. One of two out of over ten thousand tested. Helluva shot to say the least.

Here's to ya, Uncle Joe. Your service to America is not forgotten or taken lightly.

It must have been surreal. From paradise to Hades in a matter of seconds.
