I did not know Mr. Yarusso, but like all Americans, I am in debt to him, one of the Greatest Generation heroes, who charged into the fires of Hell in Normandy and met the fury of the final German assault later that same year, all to save us and the world from the evil of the Nazis. We should all salute him!
