On this Memorial Day all veterans living and dead are in my heart and mind. None more so than my father, Cecil Durham – a 30 year man – shown here in one of his only happy memories of World War II. Taken in Finchaven, New Guinea in 1944 with his lieutenant and the chief of the local tribe of head hunters. Now he and his wife Ida rest in peace in the good earth of the Fort Bliss National Cemetery in the land he fought so valiantly to defend. Rest in Peace.
