High school friends grandfather was in the 502nd. Was awesome to hear his stories. Rode a Harley until the day he died, also parachuted back in for the 60th anniversary. RIP and salute to all the vets.

Is love meet him and shake his hand! I would also enjoy hearing any stories he wanted to share, for I was too young to listen to my great granddad telling stories before he passed.
