Rueben/Dan
My father served in Germany during WW11, he was leading his company when a German snipper shot him, the bullet barely missed his heart by a inch or less and went through him, hitting one of his men in the leg breaking his leg bone. Dad never knew he was shot until his man screamed out in pain with his injured leg. Dad made a full recovery and lived to fight again. Dad's mother was a devout Christian and Said she knew he was wounded even before the Army notified her, said she knew he would be okay and would fully recover. Lots of prayers kept many alive during those tough times. My dad refused to talk about the war and you only knew he had been shot by the scar. My nephew just retired a few years back, he retired as a Army Colonel. My family has a history of Military service and I am very proud to have served as well. Dave
