Out of his unquestionable loyalty and love of his country, along with his faithfulness and love that he held, for the women in his life; comes this story of a young boy. He became a man after serving as a ball turret gunner in the 8th Air Force; 32 missions over Germany during WWII. He was decorated with the Distinguished Flying Cross. His love of Country came from within, from his heart and his mind, for a special universe all its very own. A divine gift from God, for which there is no explanation. His beautiful blue eyes and cowboy boots captured this Texas Gal's heart. It is with great honor that I became your wife. I Love You Dearly, Melba Archer Browning.
