My Dad, SSG Harry Reiter, was born on 12/6/1919 and passed on 10/15/2003. He enlisted in 1941 before the onset of WWll and was discharged in May, 1945. He was a medical corpsman in the US Army Air Corps and assigned to the 11th Air Force in Alaska. He was also assigned to the Defense of Alaska. When he was returned back to the lower 48, he was assigned to various military hospitals and rehabs caring for the injured and wounded.
