On the love of Sons for their Father

My daddy, he was somewhere between God and John Wayne.
- Hank Williams, Jr.
The bond between a Father and his Sons is something that defies description.  This almost - almost - describes it.



A sixty year search.  I hope it brought them peace.
By profession, I am a soldier and take pride in that fact. But I am prouder, infinitely prouder, to be a father.
- Douglas MacArthur

    Great story, Borepatch, thanks for posting that. As a former submariner, it touches fairly close to home.
