My father fought in Africa (Angola) for the Portuguese army as a young man and watched many of his friends die around him. I'm not sure he knew that there was a monument dedicated to those brave young men. He is gone now, but next time I visit his grave I will let him know that his friends are well remembered.
Thank you,
Jose Melo Rego...A proud Portuguese-American.
