On the way up to see Raymond and Janet I stopped off at Camp Butler National Cemetery and saw the grave of Gerald Block, my Grandma Smith's brother who was taken POW in Korea and died there in May, 1951. I left a Christmas wreath there . Gerald was born in 1925 nnd was only 25 when he died for his country.
