Default I was humbled

And honored today to be in the presence of two members of The Greatest Generation.
I was visiting with two friends, both of whom also had their fathers with them. These two men both were in the Army Air Corp in Europe.

It was nice to see friends. But it was greater still to watch these two old warriors, who had never met, sit and talk for hours. Everything from their times in Europe, to grandchildren and great grand children, and everything in between. It was obvious they enjoyed the company of someone of their own generation. And unfornately, this seldom happens anymore for either of them.

As the day drew to close, we said our good byes, and took a few pictures. But the one picture that we all wanted to get was of two well worn soldiers, smiling, arms on each other's shoulders.
