2015 Appalachian Festival held at Coney Island in Cincinnati, Ohio. He looks so good that I had a hard time believing that Leroy served in the 2nd Infantry Division from 1945 until 1948. A short conversation with him told me that he is quite a pistol who's libito is still very strong. I think it would be fun to get to know him better, but I tend to think I'd have a hard time keeping up with him and he'd probably get me into some trouble. What a great old guy. If I live to be his age, I certainly hope I look as good and am as vital as he seems to be. Amazing. He even has great taste in shirts.
Welcome home, Leroy. Thanks for your service.

2015 Appalachian Festival held at Coney Island in Cincinnati, Ohio. Dave told me that he served as a sniper in 65 and 66 and was wounded in action. He is now on full disability, but seems to have a pretty good attitude about things. It was a hot day, but, while having some obvious difficulty was covering a lot of distance fairly qaickly.
Welcome home, Dave. Thanks for your service and sacrifice.

2015 Appalachian Festival held at Coney Island in Cincinnati, Ohio. All I can read on his shirt is "I'm . . . Huckleberry". What that means I have no idea.

2015 Appalachian Festival held at Coney Island in Cincinnati, Ohio. Gary is a member of the Ohio Valley Woodturner's Guild. They had a very large booth where they were demonstraging a wide range of woodturning. Gary was showing a hand (actually foot) powered treadle lathe. It was interesting to see how craftsman created turned items before there was electric or other motorized power tools.
