I defer to her (& I do know that WWII left some significant emotional scars), but he sure always loved boats, including sea-going ships.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15687192784861682991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4821243838031243709.post-83400048723018564112009-05-05T14:56:00.000-07:002009-05-05T14:56:00.000-07:00my father was a sailor in the U.S. Navy.
