Alf posted this in the Cafe section.

My dad, Paul Sauve', passed away today.  91 years old and independent, living on his own, until 2 weeks ago.

French Canadian by birth, he joined the US Army Air Corp after to Pearl Harbor to get into the battle.  A pilot, albeit it be Piper Cubs, a POW Commandant for Japanese prisoners, NCOIC of Hickam Air Field prior to VJ day, orders to be in the second wave ashore for the invasion of Japan (thank you atomic bomb).

I'll post his war stories as best I remember them later.  

If I'm absent for a while, it's because my sister and I are settling his affairs.

Alf Sauve'
USAF 437 MAW, 1986-1972
Proud my family CHOSE to be American


I ask that those of you who pray do so that our friend remember the good times and ease his loss.

Done and Done!
If I appear taller than other men it is because I am standing on the shoulders of others.

Just saw where Alf posed it on FB....will keep the family in my prayers.
"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

"When it comes to the enemy, just because they ain't pullin' a trigger, doesn't mean they ain't totin' ammo for those that are."~PegLeg
