With Memorial Day just around the corner, Vision Forum continues our year-long sixtieth anniversary tribute and “last goodbye” to our fathers of the World War II generation. (Read more about the Faith of Our Fathers Film Project.)

During our 25,000-mile journey of honor, we stopped to film the octogenarian veterans as they visited the burial plots of fallen brothers at Oahu’s Punchbowl. In the above picture, I am standing beside the grave of Robert R. Graham, Jr., Cmdr. U.S. Navy, the father of a dear friend to Vision Forum Ministries.

There were hundreds of opportunities to speak with our sons, encourage them to have hearts of gratitude and honor, and to exhort them to bold manhood. (The above pictured grave is the marker of John Butler, father of “Johnny Boy,” featured in our field report on “The League of Grateful Sons.”)
