My DH was finishing a two year tour of duty on Taiwan we were there with him and had gone into a hotel in Taipei to wait for time to board the ship we were would be traveling back to the States. He had gone out for something and came running back and told me to turn on the radio quickly. We were in shock. The hotel was filled with rotating military.so we opened our doors and met in the hallway trying to figure what was going on back home. And if it was going to lead to war. Two days later we had a memorial service in the military chapel. I still have the program and news papers from that day. The next week we were on the ship on our way home and it was a dark time for us all.
