Today I want to remember my Grandpa, John Preece. He is 86 and is a World War II veteran He fought as a rifleman with the Royal Regiment of Canada and was wounded on April 2nd, 1945, just over the Rhine.
I am grateful that because of his courage and selflessness, I live in freedom.
God Bless you, Grandpa.
