I hope your dream does come true Erwin. Keep the faith!
I just got off the phone with Don Burgett, 101st Airborne. We had such a nice conversation. He is such a joy to speak to. Lee and I are planning on meeting him, along with Reg (one of our moderators from Belgium) and his girlfriend Anne, and also my buddy Doug, whose father was in the 326th Engineers (part of the 101st). It will be a fun weekend. We are going to spend the night in Howell too, so we will have plenty of time to shoot the breeze with Don and his family. I feel very lucky to be in his company once again. I haven't seen him in a very long time. My husband has never met him, so he is looking forward to this weekend too.
