Reviewer: Jeannie Myers from [email protected]  
My dad's actual Birthday is Oct. 12th, 1928.. Not 1927. My dad went into the Army at barely 15, I know he lied about his age to Fight for America 🇺🇸
My Uncle John Perry Myers was born in 1927. He was 16,  Navy Submarines. I miss them both.. They don't make men like this anymore.
