Either way, our people shouldn't have to honor what he and his men did, its in the past... just let it die already.
He gave of himself selflessly and proudly so you would be able to freely say what you just said. Regardless of personal opinion it's not something I believe I have in myself to do, do you or have you?

I'm not sure that you've read enough of me here, you're either an absolute noob who's almost never here, or just flat out missing some critical human nature decoder, i hope you aren't in sales...

Guess I missed it too. Poorly executed tongue in cheek. Or just wrong place and time, IMO.

If i stepped on my dinger here, it was a huge, unintentional mistake... rest in peace, Mr. Lewis.

I will not out Scot Free's bonafides but he is a friend to vets. He was just attempting some cross thread humor/pun on GoChiefs.

All that rest were mortally wounded and or died later from their wounds. He was wounded in the Battle of the Bulge, He returned to the battlefield and helped take Germany. He won two purple hearts, Silver Star and two Bronze Stars.

He returned from the war and married his high school sweetheart. Was a school teacher for 35 years. Played the trombone. In his late 70's, both him and him wife would got the ocean and swim a 1/2 mile a day, every day.

He was known as Mr. Lewis to everyone not because he was a war hero who saved many American lives but how he conducted his life when he returned from war.
RIP, they are called the greatest generation for a reason and there aren't many left.

I agree. But, it was just a mistake. We all make them.

It's not bad taste, it was just a misinterpretation.

I was outside making a phone call. This guy was out smoking and shaking all over. Didn't know the guy other than seeing him in the halls etc. Asked if he was okay, need some help and he looked at me and he had these eyes that don't belong in an office sitting, and said "I saw a guy that looked like my best friend who died in my arms over in the sandbox...........sometimes that shit comes up and I cant stop it".
