Remember The Family Of Aerial Gunner Homer J. Mitts Jr.

I heard a speech today that reminded me to remember the families of those who lost their lives fighting for our freedom.

 

It reminded me of this man, Homer Mitts Sr.

 

Here is the story of his son:

Peter, thanks for bringing this to our attention again. Very moving and the picture of the father speaks volumes.

My pleasure Rene.

 

I recommend, to all, read his story as it has several interesting aspects to it.

 

This group, more than any other I've owned, really transfers the emotional loss families suffer going through the void of a loved ones death.
