7 December was The Day That Will Live In Infamy. 8 December marked the 41st anniversary of the death of John Lennon. And today, 9 December, marks the 20th anniversary of the passing of my father. He was, among many other things, a paratrooper in the 101st Airborne. One night, many years ago while in deer camp, he taught my brother and I a song from his past. He swore us to secrecy; we had to promise that we would NEVER sing it anywhere around our mother (we kept that promise, but one of our sisters snitched us out to mom, but that's another story). I had all but forgotten about that song over the years until today while reminiscing and thinking about Dad. Thought I'd share it here with y'all. It held importance and pride for him...
