Memorial Day

[Bduck]

Just over 2yrs ago I took a long drive AFDan on Dec 28, 2017 routing up Hi40 to Vernal coming out to Manila onto I80 to home. We checked out a few lakes , the scenery, but one thing that stood out was the war memorial that was built at Duchesne. We stopped off for a bit to study this history. There was this little girl with her dog also visiting the site. I noticed on 2 of the plaques with names she ran her hand over a couple names. That's when I asked her if she knew anyone on those plaques she replied yes. She pointed to the first name on the Korean War plaque and said it was her grandfather. The 2nd name was on the Vietnam War plaque was her uncle. As we were looking at the names she pointed to we found that last name also on the other war plaques a total of 11 entries. Such a large sacrifice for one family.
