May 8th 1917, born Jack Renfro; needed a middle name on Dec. 8th 1941 in order to join the Air Force and took his mothers maiden, becoming Jack Rippy Renfro.
I wonder what your Birthday was like as you camped in the fields of France while Germany surrendered on your Birthday, May 8th 1945.
You and your buddies had chased them all the way from North Africa and back to Berlin in two and a half years.

Your Dad would have been so proud of your recent posts. I feel like I know just a little of him from the series you did a few months ago on him. I'm sure he's up there with the angels talking about "my boy Steve" as he blows out his candles.
Now Steve- it's time for you to give up your birthday date. By my nonmathematical calculations it is either May 11 or May 13th. Which is it?
I like a man with a sense of humor!
