Special Open Thread - Tommy

I received an email from the group leader of the 15th Field Artillery Association a couple of months ago. Dave “Davo” Holdorf regularly searches for veterans and came across Pallottine's tribute to his brother Tommy on Palingates. Davo asked me to put him in touch with Pallottine.

I forwarded the email to Pallottine and as a result, Tommy will be celebrated by his peers in a memorial service to be held tomorrow, as part of a reunion taking place from today until May 15 in Branson, MO.

We would like to celebrate Tommy as well. Pallottine sent me this photo of young Tommy:


Let's have thoughts for Tommy tomorrow morning, to coincide with the memorial service.

Thank you Tommy, thank you Pallottine.
