My Dad served with the 11th Armored Division 41st Tank Bn Company C...S/Sgt Raymond Cohen...known as Raymee...he was wounded and lost his fingers while chasing down a German column in an attack...I was glad to read about it in "Akron In Action". I never would have known the facts about his participation in the war since he never spoke of it to me through the years of my childhood or adult life.

I just want to say thank you to all of you who served and paid the price for the freedom I have enjoyed these past 59 years. Following in Dad's footsteps, I too served during the Viet Nam Conflict as a USMC officer so I somewhat understand the price paid for the freedom we have. Thanks again to all of you.

Please drop me a line if you read this.
