Veterans Day 2020

 Honoring my father, Omar R. Buchwalter, who despite having a family, volunteered to serve in WWII as a chaplain and was assigned to the Pacific Theater.



Here he is 3rd from left in the Fiji Islands.

Below is the Veterans Memorial in Anthem, AZ.


My brother Steve who lives there donated a brick to honor Dad.




I don't remember how we found it among all the named bricks there.




To all veterans reading this - thank you for your service to our country!
