Wouldn't it be great to sit down with a group of these vets, buy them all the beer and chicken wings they could consume and just listen to the stories. The WW2 vets are disappearing at a rate of 1200 per day and the time we have with them is definately in its twilight. Each time one of these courageous people die, it's kinda like a library, full of original books, burning down. We should make an effort to hear as many of these stories as possible, while we still can. Long live all you salty ole sailors!!
