Hi, Michiko. Thanks for your kind words, and sharing a bit of your life with me. Wives and children of military men do not have an easy life. The military seldom cares what goes on within a military family and treats its employees with complete disdain to any life outside of miliary service. The military personel are transferred often, regardless of the distress to the family, and the delicate balance between issolation and friendship to children can be devasting by the uprooting process. I am glad you have good memories of your dad. From ,me and my friends, I know military men are not easy. And while it is hard to love us, we always do our best, although, I will have to admit, our best is not always good enough. Thanks again for you comments. I appreciate your words. Regards.
