Famous WW2 Quote
"You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs. Victory in spite of all terrors. Victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival."Winston Churchill

Its sort of a strange feeling when I look at this picture and realize my father was onboard at the time. My father is still alive and healthy and will be 85 in June 2010. We are very proud of him and awestruck when he describes in detail the combat action (and typhoon)he and his fellow sailors experienced during WW2. When you see an old man, respect the unspoken chapters of his life.
