WWII Frogman
I met a most interesting old gentleman over the weekend and will post his story in the WWII veterans stories in the next few days. He was a mamber of a Naval Frogman or UDT team in China during WWII. The best part is the gift he gave me. I received his WWII Navy jumper complete with the UDT patch , but most interesting is the Chinese dragon embroidered inside the cuff on the right sleeve on the jumper with his UDT unit number on it. Great stuff from a veteran. More to come.
