And the everlasting truths which have your voice.

506 Infantry, WORLD WAR II INDEX BY NAME
Sharlee received TWO email's from Normandy France, starting 10 May 2008,
from a wonderful man and organization that are taking care of our soldiers
who died for their Freedom.
I e-mail Jeannie, Nita, Will and Elsie with my first two emails and
then answered Franck. Then received this email 8 June 2008. Dear Sharlee
and Jeannie,
I saw in the news that there were a serial of hurricanes in Oklahoma.
It's really terrific.
Thank you very much for your messages and all you researches. You are
wonderfull with me. It was a dream for me to meet members of the Charles
Risner's familly. Thank to you this dream is coming true.
I started to put flowers on charles'grave five years ago. he died for
us, for our freedom and it's very important to not forget his sacrifice.
I join for you and the familly of Charles Risner a picture of his grave.
