REMEMBERING

On this 75th anniversary of D-Day, a photo of me and my five siblings (there was another brother between me and my sisters who died as an infant) in 1944, me in my oldest brother's arms, he had joined The Army Air Corps (they became the US Air Force after "the war" as we called WWII), and my next oldest brother to his right (viewer's left) soon would join the Navy before graduating high school because the government, in need of more troops, offered high school diplomas to volunteers in their last year of high school. Everyone gone now except for me and the youngest of my two older sisters, Irene.
