6 June 1944

I jumped Normandy 2000, 2001 and was Ground Committee in '04.   Doc Grounded me, no more jumps but when I heard they had 22 Daks and over 200 jumpers I was cursing and kickin for a bit.    What I would give to do it just one more time.   Here is a 97 YO vet who did get to do it one more time.

A Kiss is just a kiss

Except when the Japanese have just surrendered and The Tin Can you were on doesn't have to go to the Pacific.   



George Mendonsa passed away.   He was the guy running down the street kissing every women and girl he could.    Alfred Eisenstaedt took the picture but wasn't able to get the names of the participants.   Greta Zimmer Friedman was identified as the Girl in the photo,  She passed in 2016.  

Fair Winds and Following Seas George.   You expressed the emotions of a world in that kiss.    Typical Swabby.   ;)
