You must be very proud of your family. I love the term Dough boys. They were brave wondeful Soldiers. I really feel for them. Fox holes and mustard gas. How awful. the 20th century was so violent. and the 21st is not off to a good start. I am remembering the guys I served with in Vietnam and praying for an end to the war in Iraq. great post with wonderful pictures.
