“Dick Ogle, Bob Rushford (killed in Korean War)”
-my grandmother’s handwriting on back of picture
This picture is thought-provoking with no words. But those 8 little words written on the back make this picture truly wordless. Yesterday got me thinking about those who give their lives for our benefit. What were these 2 men boys thinking when they were walking in this picture? When they stepped off the boat or plane into Korea? When they breathed their last breath?
I have no idea who those 2 men are. I’ve never heard their names. But I honor them today.
