for those who may not know, (america at least) has a saying for military persons. 'Gone but not forgotten' is one of those. another that i have tattooed on my shoulder is 'For those who gave all'. Fire, you are a great person, and if that is any form of mirror of how your dad brought you up, then he was a great man. And what little you have told me of him, reflects strongly in my life as someone who has been in the honor guard, responsible for the proper burials of those military persons who have gone to fight the good fight on the other side. So i salute him and his life..
as a side note, it is said that a person has 2 deaths. once when they die, and a second when their name is said for the last time. Never let him be forgotten. Speak often of him to your wife and kids and grandkids etc.
