He's probably smart...

He is an old P-47 & P-38 fighter pilot who survived two tours in
WWII. So he is pretty smart.

He's certainly is most fortunate to still be here!

Are you aware of THIS place?

I wasn't until now. Thanks for that bit of information.

You are welcome. Following all the trauma of organizing my son's
funeral, we had a 'spare' day. My wife and I went to visit Cambridge
for
the very first time in our lives - and took a ride on an open-top tour
bus. After reviewing the various universities, the bus left the city
and
eventually stopped outside the American Cemetery. We were invited to
leave the bus and go and explore - but we simply could not, knowing so
poignantly how much sadness the parents of those young men must have
felt.

I am really sorry to hear that. You and your wife have gone through
the worst possible experience.

I appreciate your understanding.

Thank you, Peter.

I am sorry also to be hearing about this David. I have no words and I
certainly cannot put myself in your shoes.

Even though Nick died way back in 1999, I still sometimes find it
troubling to talk about it. The biggest problem was/is that there was
absolutely no one to blame.

I appreciate your 'hug', though, PAS. Thanks. :-)
