WWII Veteran

This morning we went to the Piermont Market hoping to find Ingrediance for Paulo's gazpacho. They didn’t have all the items. We then walked towards the pier and stopped at the Gazebo. At first there were a lot of bicycle riders. When they left a lovely couple sat down and we began to talk. He was a WWII veteran stationed in the Pacific. His job in Tokyo was to try and keep the GIs from tormenting the Japanese people especially the women. This is the ugliness of the aftermath of war – even the justified ones.
