For my Grandpa.

He had a destroyer sunk from under him, then had a fellow marine fall onto him while climbing down unto the landing craft at Iwo. He broke his leg that day, so he didn't go ashore.

I saw pictures of him on his wedding day, and it is like looking in a mirror. I was shocked.

I don't have many heroes in my life, but this is the first one. My Grandfather. 94 years and going strong. Love you Grandpa. I hope to be half the man you are.
