Once again the reminder, “Freedom isn’t free” and thank God for all the brave men and women who served. Yes, women as our daughter, Elizabeth Helen Stout Knox-Brock served 7 1/2 years in the Army. She was stationed in Korea when our youngest son, Ted M. Stout volunteered for Marines in Desert Storm .Our granddaughter was Born in Seoul during her service there. Elizabeth was brought back to the States to be an M.P. drill sergeant . My Daddy Alva Lee Campbell served in the First World War, and came home safely but was never really well. Yes, the Korean Memorial is my favorite as I can still see and feel those brave, diligent eyes watching over the United States of America.
