He went to visit the Arizona memorial in 1977 with my mom. Dad was so anguished, by the site, that he became ill, he thought it was just the emotional impact. That evening he had a massive heart attack, at age 49. He lived, but was never able to work again.
I wish I could say this more eloquently, I know Opi could do a better job, but my point is, the admiration fellow military feel for each other, is beyond compare!
No Athena, no one could say it any better than that. Your dad obviously loved this country and respects the military. I'm sorry to hear he never fully recovered but glad a guy like him lived to tell about his experience at the memorial. Good for him and God bless him.
