Re: Tell us about your Veterans

1) My middle son Zach is currently in Afghanistan with the 101st Airborne Screaming Eagles
2) My oldest son David is a captain in the reserves and is a senior resident as a neurologist in Jackson MS
3) My Dad, Zach Hirsch Jr., was in the Army Air Corp in WWII and was stationed in Ireland as a weather forecaster where he met my Mum.
4) Mum, Katherine "Kay" Hirsch, is British and has the distinction of being the only person who served in the ATA (Air Transport Auxiliary) , the RAF, and the Land Army. She was one of 16 women ferry pilots who flew for England. She flew Spitfires, Hurricanes, Grumman Hellcats and others. She went to be with the Lord this year on May 15.
5) My father-in-law, John "Jack" Peterson was a Navy pilot in WWII
6) My mother-in-law, Vivian Parry Peterson, was a WAC and worked for Oppenheimer at Hanford on the Manhattan Project. She died of leukemia in '64 as a result of the radiation exposure.

I won't go back ant further in the family history.
