Two years ago my mother's memory care home had an American Battle of the Bulge veteran and Bronze Star winner who was sharp as a tack. He was 99 and said he just wanted to live to be 100, but sadly he didn't make it. I remember my late grandmother telling us they had made mittens for my great uncle, but he died in that battle before the mittens arrived. Crazy to think I passed up my chance to have a cup of coffee with a man who might have fought beside my great uncle.
