Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...
As a World War II veteran, I would like to commend the Tribune for marking the obituaries of veterans with an American flag. I am disappointed, however, that the obituaries state ”Served with the U.S. Army” rather than the unit with which the departed served, be it regiment, division or ship. Any soldier who was worth his salt as a military man would be proud of his unit and want that information in his obituary. Not doing so is a disservice to his memory. Widows or parents should demand from funeral directors that this be done.
