I'm so sorry you never had the opportunity to enjoy your uncle. It sounds like he was an incredible man who died nobly but way too young. We thank all of the men who gave their lives for us so that we can be here to remember them. To anyone who served, THANK YOU. Your story is wonderful.

It must have carried an added burden to have lost him so close to the end of hostilities.
