I remember Jesse Penna today

Jesse was a Navy Corpsman serving with the Marine Corps in Viet Nam. He lost his life serving his country and his fellow man. It was 1968 and Jesse and I would sit in the barracks and sing along with Janis Joplin "Piece Of My Heart" We were a mess. I remember him today and many other days. I thank God that I am home today free and healthy and with my family. I remember all who served and didn't make it home. God bless America.

I remember when I was a boy and the old timers would go to the cemetery and decorate the graves on "Decoration  Day". Now I am one of the old timers. I am thinking of you my brother, I'll never forget. Today I will play Janis for you and me, somehow the music always helps and makes me smile.
