2. I saw a young Marine with his dad in Chicago earlier this week....
It appeared they were visitors to Chicago. The Marine was walking around downtown Chicago in his dress uniform. I didn't notice anyone going up to him and thanking him, and we followed him most of the way up Michigan Avenue.
My feelings toward him weren't negative (how could they be?) but I did find myself wondering if he was home on leave, or preparing to go over to George's Camp Hell Hole. He was so young. I said a little prayer for him that night.
