On this day in history. . .

The date on the back of the photo says Dec 23; almost my first Christmas! I would have been 4 months old in this picture. My mother and I were living with my grandparents, while Dad was stationed with peacekeeping forces in Germany. This was in an album of pictures Mama sent to him while he was away.

The dog was named Pal; I'm told he was very protective of me, only allowing select people to come near.
