Hello Mary Ann, welcome to the forum, nice to hear from a sister unit of Dad`s. It`s great that you have your dad`s diary & letters to learn about his service even if it is difficult reading of his experiences. My dad never kept a diary (that i know of) nor have i seen any letters of his. There were only a few items of memoribilia that he had in a small canvas bag. We`d like to see any pictures or stories of your dad if you can post them. You have every reason to be proud of your dad, and the best way we can repay our vets is to teach furture generations of their sacrifices and let them know they will never be forgotten.
