Here are just a few photos of family members who served this nation faithfully. Some I did not post because I did not have a photo but would like to recognize. All these Uncles and cousins served from WWII, Korea, Viet-Nam, the gulf, It is amazing to note that all of our family who saw hard combat during all of these conflicts, everyone came back alive! Few were wounded but no one lost their lives during the conflict. I guess God was watching over the family. The following served but did not have a photo of them in uniform: Angel Rosado, WW II, Antonio Rosado, WW II, Ed Morales, Agustin O. Acevedo, Efrain Morales, Efrain Morales Jr, Edwin Rosado, Raymond Rosado, Cesar Rosado, Efrain Rosado, Abisael Perez, Antonio Perez, Eduardo Otero, Eduardo Otero Jr, Mike Otero, .....there are probably another 20 family I left out but rest assure they are patriots!! What many who read this post need to understand that I the time these veterans were asked to served specially the ones from WW II left Puerto Rico and a very young age. None of them I experience cold weather coming from a tropical island, None of them spoke English, some of these family member were just farmers. Never been further than San Juan. next thing you know they were in Ft Dix and the either in Germany, Italy or the Pacific. Yet they persevere and grew up quickly. I am extremely proud of my uncles and cousin who fought valiantly for this great nation. To my family members who see this post and if you have a photo of a family member who served please e-mail or post and I will capture the image.
