| That is our daughter Melanie. She is 38 now. Captain Bruce Brockway wrote that he left for Vietnam on his daughter's 1st birthday. I returned to Logan airport in Boston on the morning of her 2nd birthday where my family was waiting for me. I will never forget the smile on her face when she saw me and reached out her little arms. My wife had her kiss my picture good night every evening at bed time and she actually recognized me. |
