This is Mr Alex Dyga, the 89 year old gentleman I spoke about in an earlier posting. Mr Dyga has been making the journey to Pearl Harbor each year on December 7th, to pay his respects to the fallen and work as a volunteer at the "Valor in the Pacific" Museum and USS Arizona memorial. This year he will be there for an entire month!. Mr Dyga is a delightful old gent who has had a fascinating life. It was one of the trip highlights to have met him!
