I have been to Abilene, Kansas many times to do WWII research at the Eisenhower Library. We always made an appointment so we could read his papers. We had to wear white gloves and everything we looked at he had in his hands.
My father and my father-in-law served with honor with General Eisenhower. They were in both theaters as airmen.
Below I found this postcard in my files. First Day Issue for his stamp.

Very impressive!
As I get older, I become more and more moved emotionally by people who serve our country. Doesn't matter to me which war or how they serve, I regard them all as heroic first responders.
Ditto on that Arnold! I’ve always respected military personnel, police, firemen... Now I appreciate them enough to thank them for their service wherever I can. I read about the more famous ones more now. All have flaws, but mostly good point! General Eisenhower was one to learn from.
