Austin,
I just got through viewing your tribute site and wanted to let you know you have a great thing going....
After seeing the cemetery pictures I was immediately taken back some 30 years to when I stood in that same cemetery. It hasn't changed at all ! I have some of the same photos that you have. I, however didn't know anyone in the cemetery, but then again I knew EVERYONE. I was only 10 years old then but already I knew what WWII was. The battles portrayed on the maps were some that I had read about and studied. It made a lasting impression.
Did you get over to Corregidor while you were in the PI? Another place of lasting impression for me.
Best of luck on the site. Lets honor those who gave all and asked for nothing in return....
