Comments: I'm looking for any info I can get about my dad. He died
when I was 16 in '94. He was my everything. I know he was
a tail gunner, (he was really short) and he was shot
down. He went in when he was 17yrs old in '52. He was
from Georgia. I know he was a POW but don't know when he
went over, what camp or more info. He did get a purple
heart, but I don't know the circumstances. Besides a few
small details he didn't talk about it. The scars were far
too deep.. Please help me if you have ANY info! I've
waited 18 years for help/info.

Comments: I was an Army brat, Army wife, Army widow, and am now an Air Force Retired wife, and I do not take the sacrifices that the men and women (and the family members) of our Armed Forces make lightly. I attended an estate sale in my neighborhood, and found Lt. Coke's decorations for sale by the piece. I purchased the lot, and have hung them in the family room next to my husband's, who is most humbly grateful to share his wall space with Lt. Coke. I just wanted to post a remembrance at this site. Lt.Coke died at Prison Camp 1, but was re-buried at Ft. Sam Houston under Operation Glory. My parents and first husband are also at rest there, and my life has been free because of the thousands more who bear silent watch with them.
