He never spoke of it, I heard of it via other people. The other Grampy was a Dignitary in Central America and Haiti. He on the other hand spoke fondly of those times. (Except when his house employees would eat his pets) I need to root up some photos of the crazy pomp and silly wool uniforms they were forced to wear in Haiti. I can't even imagine times like those. I have always loved the Aloha shirts with either ships or aircraft mingled with the flowers. While not commonplace, I have found some nice ones at an aircraft museum gift shop south of San Francisco. Sam's in HB. has some WWII art. I have been told that it's authentic stuff. [ Edited by: Gigantalope on 2004-08-31 00:22 ]
