Stephen Kulig, 92, veteran of World War II and Korea, always had a smile on his face and hard candies in his pocket. His family remembers a man who was a natural caregiver. http://apne.ws/DwUSE6m pic.twitter.com/OzRhiaLu7P

It is regrettable to me that you chose *this* thread to put a political cartoon. You have the option to take it down and save it for another day/thread. My grandfather served in WWII. My dad served in Vietnam. My gratitude to our service members and their families.
Stunning tribute @DavidGoldmanAP
