Today is June 14.  It is my maternal grandfather’s birthday.  (It is also flag day, and my grandfather used to claim, jokingly, that everyone put out their flags for his birthday.) To commemorate the day I am sending you this link to my grandfather’s memoirs.  https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QUW_9fBzCM7fw2o2toN6e1BRkuTYopyFrBDZeastJg0/edit?usp=sharing
