Those guys saved civilization as we know it. I don't see many that age any more. My favorite was my Code Talker - one of the original 29. I was also saddened by Sen. Inouye's passing this week. I didn't always agree with his politics but as a Medal of Honor winner he got my respect. And all the presidents Salute.
