She is my girlfriend, Ligeia. She has great patience with me and recently accompanied me to the reenactment in 40s clothes... She also receives a lot of success ^_^

I want to propose her to Mr. Spielberg and Mr. Hanks for a hypothetical new TV series "The Italian Front". (only then if they take us as actors hahaha B):lol:)

 

If she needs a period uniform I have an original WWII US Navy Waves jacket and cap that would probably fit her :woof:

Thanks for the offer, but unfortunately we are far from the sea and when we do re-enactments, it would be out of place :D

 

By chance would you have a pair of HBT pants for man? Here in Europe are almost impossible to find... :D

 

Sorry for the OT

Rocky said he couldn't login, so I sent him his login name and re-set his password. I will post this in the interim, but will happily await for him to re-join us again...

 

 

I tried to write on the forum but I couldn't get in. So here goes--We,Elizabeth and I, left for Italy April 18 and returned May 3. It was a trip of a lifetime for me. We were met in Rome and Matteo,our guide was ready to start where I wanted to see. MONTE CASSINO. Anzio for starters. Then we went to Verona because on the 23rd,it was liberation day. There was parade and I had to ride in the lead jeep. Was in Rome for Easter Sunday and Monday,seems like there was over a million people there. Lot of interviews. And picture taking. There is an American Barracks of the 102 Airborne in Verona that we went and I talked to them and they want me to go back again. "Just said,"we'll see" So many things happened , And they all said I was a Hero, I told them all--I was no Hero,the Heroes were the one that did not make it back,just go to the American Cemetary and see the crosses there with their names. It was a wonderful trip and I felt better after we left.

THIS OLE WW11 VETERAN IS A HAPPY MAN NOW !!!!!!!!!
