possible? obviously my father is alive some place and he lost his dog tag, i mean, that s just improbable. so, we have got some certitude now though of reasonable location and all of that. what are the plans for a final resting place for your father? well, we actually just talked a little bit about that. i don t know. maybe arlington. maybe up around indianapolis. maybe, you know. we will just have to work that out. those are first, you have to make sure that some of the remains are his. it may not be. maybe we re just getting a dog tag, which is wonderful. i mean, it really is wonderful in one sense. did your grandfather serve in the first world war? he did not. he was a farmer. and was exempted as a farm family. from that generation my mom s family and my father s farm people. is he from butler, missouri area. my father i have a great uncle namesake also that was
