When I was a little girl I thought my dad was the most handsome man in the whole wide world. Looking at his old pictures I still believe he was. He was in the Navy and spent most of his time on submarines or sub tenders. I loved when he wore his uniforms, especially his dress whites. I still think of him every time I smell Old Spice aftershave. I am privileged to have a wonderful ongoing relationship with my father. In fact he is one of my loyal Dust Bunny readers.
Happy Birthday Dad.
Happy Veterans Day.

He is a handsome one... and you are lucky to have him in your life. My father was a wonderful man, kind, loving, and gentle. I have missed him for 27 years now. He will always be " My Daddy" to me. Enjoy this great thing you have. Tinahttp://journals.aol.com/onemoretina/Ridealongwithme
ReplyDeleteAw! That sure is a handsome me isn't it. That's a picture opf your Daddy, Dorn firing a torpedo using the Mk 101 Torpedo Firecontrol System on his submarine USS Bonita off the coast of Honolulu, Hawaii probably in July 1956. And yes I hit the bows eye.
