'Our freedom today was bought by the blood of millions of service men and women of the military.We had lived through the Depression years. Germany and Japan were trying to take over the world.We were sent to block their takeover, and take back what they had taken. This is just a small part of what I did for my country to help keep it free.' -Carl C. Barnes, WWII and Korean War Veteran
