Rob,
Great post and thanks for your father's service. I don't mean to get off topic but is your Dad registered in the National WWII Memorial?
If not - that is something you could do for him and your family.
National WWII Memorial
Both my parents as well as my step-father are registered.
Keep us posted please....
