Steve—Thanks for sharing John Onken’s story. As I wrote this column I hoped we’d hear from readers as you have done about the heroics of their long departed family members who sacrificed for all of us.

Two extremely touching remembrances of Dutch. He was so humble and never exuded any self importance. I was thinking of him yesterday and recalling how taken I was when I first learned of his heroics. Thanks Richard and David for your moving articles.
