My Dad the WWII Vet

So, I finally started Dad's blog. He has been working tirelessly on his memoirs of his time in the Navy and that prompted me to merge the scrapbook I made him a while back with his narratives.

I am also taking over webmastering a site that uses WordPress, so I used that to figure out the lay of the land. It seems that the HTML is locked down for free users??
So I picked what looked like a good theme... the graphic on the sidebar appears to be flowers. Sigh. OK so I'm going with it and seeing it as a subtle juxtaposition to the war stories.

Dad has been typing up his articles and sending them off to family and friends. It's not easy for him. He's 90 and has had to learn Windows 2010, not to mention he only has one hand that works and that's his left hand. But he plugs away at it and keeps learning what the computer can do. Very proud of him for his never say die attitude as well as his war exploits. His site is www.ltjgwwii.wordpress.com
