That display is something I would love to have had from my Grandfather.

He was all over the Middle East during the war, the only thing we have are a few old pictures. With nothing written on them.

I was never prescient enough to ask questions of him. I just figured he drove a truck and that wasn’t that big of a deal. Looking back makes me wish I had spent time with him having him explain all the pictures and locations he was during the war.

I have a couple of vague memories of stories he told, but nothing like you’ve got here.

I harp on my mother about doing the same thing with all of her childhood memorabilia of my grandparents.

Cherish what you have and I’m jealous.
