Take a look at this video-absolutely fabulous! Notice the cars, jeeps, and youth. The guys in khaki or gray shirts and black ties are Navy officers or chiefs. The rest are Army or Marine. How young they all were to do what they did.</SPAN></B><SPAN></SPAN></DIV> <DIV style="BACKGROUND: white"><B><SPAN style="COLOR: blue">This guy really captured a moment in history! (You can listen to Jimmy Durante singing "I'll be Seeing You" in the background, too) This is a super video of a time past - we need to remember and be THANKFUL.</SPAN></B><SPAN></SPAN></DIV> <DIV style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; BACKGROUND: white" align=center><B><SPAN style="COLOR: blue">Check out the color fidelity.
