Click on the photo of the Canadian Lancaster and you will see my Dad and his squadron on his goodwill trip to the US in 1946 commemertating the efforts of all allied flyers esp those coming to England in their Fortresses! They will never be forgotten and we owe them all that we hold so dear and often take for granted! ( My Dad beat me on you tube 63 years ago...I knew I should have been a Rock Star!)

The Aleutian Island campaign of the Japaneese was a very serious threat to mainland U.S.A. and they very much had designs on the Pacific Northwest. For some reason I think that Americans don't like to admit that we have been invaded since 1812 and that is a real shame when you think about all that those men faught and died for. I have only seen one documentary on this subject and to my knowledge not one book has been writen about the subject exclusively. It only gets mentioned in footnotes from time to time. I have never been in the military and as such have never seen combat before. But on days like today I think about what it must be like, as all Americans should. On this paticular veterans day I will think about what it must be like to march, bivy and fight in biter cold on a very isolated island in the Norther Pacific.
