In Memory Of
by Susan P. for Walter Faber, Honored by US Soldiers' & Airmen's Home National Cemetery
Sponsored for the WWII Flying Fortress Squadron veterans and their families who remember them proudly. We appreciate the example of the Greatest Generation who, in their very young adult years, gave service to stop terrifying events. Thanks to the 92nd Bombadier Squadron and their families for being exceptional fellows in service to each other, including through danger, injury and losses, and stoically humble about contributing to important victories. Thanks to the familial support of and memorializing of each other. Their legacy passed on is meaningful to all their heirs, and the world.
