Memories do fail us.

Now i want it understood, that i do not have dementia, lol.  I was just thinking about the fact that i have not posted again in a while.  Sort of wondering if i should post the old war stories, and such on here.  Then i started thinking again.  (dangerous i know).  Anyway i had an uncle, that i was named after, that was in WWII.  My dad did two tours of duty in Korea, during the Korean war of course, and one of my older brothers, was in Viet Nam.  I did my combat during the Grenada Invasion, (Don't believe the clint eastwood movie, about heartbreak ridge).  Us Rangers, as well as the Marines both know who landed first.  Anyway, my dad used to tell me his stories of Korea, and i would think, yeah, i've heard it a thousand times.  My father passed away some years ago, and now i cannot seem to remember any of them... This saddens me so greatly.  These stories of his were really a part of our history, a single man view of course, but part of an amazing history non the less.  I now miss my dads stories, though not nearly as much as i miss him.  When my kids were growing up, i told them so many funny stories from my younger life, and they always laughed, (yea i know) i've heard it a thousand times, lol..... oh well. i am writing this for my own reasons, i hope some others find it, and find the stories to (come),  entertaining, but i also write this for my Dad, and my kids.  I am truly sorry, i don't remember your stories.... but Memories do Fail Us.  So i will begin posting more often, and i hope any who read, enjoy.  perhaps your Memory is better than mine....
