Huntington, WV (HNN) – As the ritual of remembrance occurs again, fewer and fewer members of the Greatest Generation, which included service in World War II, continue living. Although dad passed away over a year ago, the continuation of veterans paying the ultimate price in Iraq and Afghanistan continues. Each casualty touches yet another group of family and friends.
Veterans returning from foreign service in 2009 include many survivors who if not for state of the art medical knowledge and technology would not have ‘made it’ in other eras.
