notes:

Meet Dutch ! At 86 years young , Dutch is one of the last WW 2 survivors to have served on the U.S.S. Missouri . Now he collects scrap wood to heat his small home. He does have VA benefits , but can't survive on them because of skin cancer operations. An independent friendly old guy.
This guy despite his age can tell more jokes than anyone I have met.
Sorry that I have been gone so long , but I had to finish my server. Now I will have more time.
Enjoy !
Barry

A sad shot of a graceful 86 years old veteran with
experience in the forces collecting scrap wood to
heat his home. Dutch is a Hero.

Thank you Chandru my friend. I am trying something new. My own server only to raise awareness of those who are hurting the most.
