    I can't wait to visit. Been planning for so long. My father fought with the philippine soldiers in 1945. 1st cavalry US army. Lost buddies. Effected him his whole life. Had nightmares. But loved the people there. Helped families. And our cousin Paul Henry Carr died in battle off Leyte on USS Samuel B. Roberts. I know his plaque is there. And I hope to find some of Dads buddies. I cry watching this. Its so beautiful. It will be my honor to visit soon.

    Looking out onto the vast field of crosses and Stars of David, it was as if the ghosts of the rows and rows of soldiers, sailors, and marines were standing at attention, ready to serve their country again. It is for us, the living, to remember Lincoln's words at another cemetery. "that the government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from this earth." This will only happen if righteousness prevails and despots and wannabes fail. My cousin lost at sea, is listed on the memorial wall.
