I know it’s hard for me to cry. I hardly ever cry and but that was just part of growing up and that was part of his culture. When he grew up, you didn’t cry, and you didn’t complain. It's kind of like Tom Brokaw said ah the greatest generation they uh went through the depression, they went through a war, and they came home and went to work and they never complained and that’s kind of my dad to a T. I never heard him complain one time about his service.
