My father was a Ghost Army radio operator. He never told me what he did in the war. I thought it was to protect me. Now I know it was to protect the country.

Hi, My father in law was in the Ghost Army too. He is the only surviving member in the state of Louisiana. Here's hoping the new bill passes. Our heroes deserve this honor!

My father in law, Stanley Glassman, also served in the "Ghost Army". He was a far too modest man to ever really talk about his part in the war - I'd love to see him & all these other brave men get the recognition they deserve.

We are so grateful for what you did in WWII. Thank you for your service. Our class is studying WWII this semester and would relish an interview with you. We can come to you if that is easier. Please contact me through the email address above. Thank you!

Let us never forget how our freedom is preserved. Stanley B. Nance left his wife who was expecting their first child to serve our country. Bless Stan and his sweet wife for their sacrifice!

We can’t thank the courageous veterans enough that did so much for our country during WWII.

My father lied about his age to enlist in the Navy during WWII. He’s dead now, but doing this would also honor him.

Please push this through for a deserving group of patriots. Do it while some of them are alive.
