This Veterans Day I’m thinking about my dad who did not wait to be drafted but instead volunteered to join the Army right out of high school in ‘66. Here is one of his military photos, a basic training photo with a new friend, and a photo of him working in communications while stationed in Thailand during the Vietnam War (he had great taste in music, introduced me to The Beatles when I was a kid 😎). He met my mom while stationed in Thailand and came home to the US to start a family and had 3 girls. Here’s when I was baptized (and come to think of it, he kinda looks like #ZachGalifianakis). He never once expected to be thanked for his service. #veteransday #thankyoudad #mydadwascool
