to military people he would meet on the beach. My father was one of the most graceful swimmers you would ever see in water. He was a part time, town lifeguard for ten years after the war. I recall watching him and saying to myself, I wish I could do that.

Funny thing, dancing or anything on land, he was awkward, In water, it was different.
