Today is Memorial Day. My dad served our country during the Korean War in the Navy as a Seabee. That meant that he was doing construction for the Navy. That worked out well, because he learned how to be a carpenter, plumber and electrician while working on Navy bases and buildings. Then when he got out, he had a skilled trade.
My dad died from cancer back in the 1980′s, when I was just in my 20′s. I feel cheated out of having a dad as an adult. I loved him so much and I’m so proud of him for having served in the Navy.
