Default WWII memorial

i wish i still had the info for my grandfather, wayne p. bailey, who
volunteered and fought in both world wars... he was as genuine and true
a soul as ever i've known, and, other than from my failing memory, he
deserves to be remembered. maybe this bit sent over the ether will be
preserved. he, like many others like him, oughta have more.

For those of you who have family members who served in WW II in uniform or
on the homefront, and would like their names to be included in the registry
for the monument:

Costs nothing, you have to provide some demographics to register their
names. A fitting tribute.



Thanks slenon. I'm going to call my dad tonight and get the pertinent
info about his service at Anzio and points north. I'll also see if he
knows the details for my uncles, one who drove amphibious tanks in the
Pacific, another who got injured at Hickam Field and a third who was a
navigator in a B-17 which never made it back from a bombing raid at
Schweinfurt.

Thanks again.
