Memorial Day 2015

George E. Bloom, Troop Truck, Fort Bliss, Texas, 1941

In addition to being Memorial Day, it's the 11th anniversary of my Dad's death.  I found some photos of my Dad's first years in the U.S. Army, 1941, Fort Bliss, Texas.  Eventually, he achieved the rank of Major.  Dad spent 4-1/2 years in the service. Thank you, Dad for serving. 

The veterans of our military services have put their lives on the line to protect the freedoms that we enjoy.  They have dedicated their lives to their country and deserve to be recognized for their commitment.
