    The Hump? Man, that's awesome and gutsy. I'm sure a lot of people don't know what The Hump is. Your dad must have been one bad ass cool guy. May God bless him.

    We are losing these heroes daily. The ETO (European Theater of Operation) guys were in awe the South Pacific guys, and vs-a-versa. I'm sorry for you and yours' loss.
