Honoree's First Name
From
Tribute	My dad was a WWII Coast Guard Veteran. He was on LST 262 and was in the Normandy invasion . When I was a 13 or 14 yrs old I used to ask him what he did and where he was, all I got was tidbits. We did not talk about it for a lot of years and I and brothers and sisters tried to get him on the Honor Flight to DC. The answer was always I did not do anything . Everyone brought it up until my brother Dave got a yes and went with him, What a surprise he got when he came back to the Milwaukee Airport. He found out he did make a difference. Over the years since when I called got more info about what he did during the war and talked about my Navy escapades. I am glad I found a lot more about my Dad thanks to Honor Flight.
