Sounds really good but what a shame you stole it from your wife and claimed it as your own. (I know it was posted a year ago but I'm a little slow in finding your blog!)

I believe that is in error as my Navy Cross database is estimated at 99.9% complete on all NX awards, and is pretty close to 100% on USMC awards of the NX. While he MAY have earned the Silver Star (My db is a little less reliable there), I can find no record of that either. He is NOT listed by Jane Blakeney as a Silver Star recipient in her rather complete listing of USMC awards through 1954. If you have anything to verify either of these awards, I would appreciate copies. Email me at: doug@homeofheroes.com I can find no record of William Manchester receiving the Navy Cross.

(It was an excellent piece.) It saddens me to my core. To think that in America most 16/17-year-old girls spend their days worrying only about what to wear and which boys like them. If they were a few thousand miles away though, in Iran, those worries would be of a much different nature -- rape, murder, abuse and inhumanity. Unbelievable the difference a few thousand miles can make. I don’t really have anything all that profound to say about your piece on Nazanin. (It was an excellent piece.) It saddens me to my core.

I start the coffee and go to check my email as it's brewing. I received an email about a new blog that Mike has written, and being he's such a good writer and I always enjoy his perspectives on things I open it. Here is where my morning changed, now it's not unlikely that you can catch me out around 4:30 sitting on the porch, reading a book and enjoying the quite, peacefullness of Martindale in the hours before the rest of the natural world is awake. I love this time of morning. But, as luck should have it after reading Mike's blog I noticed and appreciated more so than normal some of the dark hours' wonderfulness, such as, the sound of the dew dripping off the roof this morning seemed like music, and while I've somewhat noticed this before it really stuck out this morning more so than normal, even with my stuffy nose, that the morning smells better than any other time of day. This morning the sounds of the birds waking up and the way the night turned light just seemed so much more magical. So, thank you Mike for making me appreciate my quite morning so much more while I sat and contemplated the beautiful things life has to offer!
