As we really enjoyed our beautiful, mild Spring day in Suwanee, we were compelled to call our favorite WWII veteran in Suwanee. As a matter of fact, it's the ONLY WWII Veteran we know in Suwanee, Mr Harold Humphries. Not only that, he's the ONLY WWII Veteran we know personally, anywhere. He's a special, fine man that Beverly has respected for many years, long before she realized he was a WWII Veteran.
We asked him what he was doing on D Day in 1944. We were excited to learn that he was safely back in the U.S., for about 30 days, while the USS Hornet, which he was stationed, was being cleaned and repaired, before she was sent back to her honorable duty. Thank you, Mr. Humphries, for your service. And, thank you for sharing your stories with us. It's truly an honor to know you.
