The people we served with, they were dedicated. They sacrificed. They had great courage. We shared heartbreak and hilarity. We saw our comrades go down and being killed, being wounded, become prisoners of war. And we developed a tremendous respect for each other, and we shared a victory. And I think this was the experience of all of our people. Miraculously, people came together. You have to give all the credit to the men and the women that sacrificed their lives, and basically, saved the world
from fascism. The freedoms that we enjoy did not come about by accident. They were bought and paid for by my generation and the generations that preceded us. And for that reason, I think the World War II Generation deserves to be remembered.
