My Dad is my Hero
The handsome, young Air Force pilot in the picture is my Dad. He’s the source of my patriotism and pride. He was awarded the Air Force Cross and is a member of the Legion of Valor. His story is posted on the Legion of Valor website, click here.
You can also read about him here, and here, and here, and here, and….well, you get the idea!
Thanks, Dad, for ALL you do and have done. I bet I was the loudest one belting out the Air Force song in the Veteran’s Day “Sing! America” last night, I’m proud to be your daughter.
