I remember that day you brought Walt to the trading floor. Hell I almost cried. Shaking his hand was a highlight. THE definition of a hero and an outstanding member of the greatest generation. We can learn a lot from people like Walt.
Jeffrey, this is outstanding. Bringing Walt to the CME pits was genius. We just lost a beloved family member who was on the battleship California at Lingayen Gulf when a kamikaze hit, killing dozens of shipmates. Your posts get better all the time.
My Dad’s only comment on D-day was that the Sargent on the landing craft yelled, “Men, do not die on the beach. The beach is a landing zone. Go inland to die.”
