Veteran Remembered

My dad's brother, my Uncle Henry G. Nulton was a veteran of both world wars. He was a Major General and Commander of the 78th Divison, Army Reserves, when he retired from service in 1960.
He saw action in France with Co. A. of the 111th Machine Gun Battalion, 29th Division in World War I and was wounded at Meuse-Argonne. During World War II he was wounded by mortar fire in New Guinea. He was awarded Purple hearts.
Personally, I remember him being very jovial and carrying an authoritative attitude, while being very likeable. His four sons each were service members and outstanding soldiers. Ever since I was a young child I have honored him and his service to our country.

ALL veterans should be honored for their service, no matter where or what they did to serve.
