Memorial to Marty

It was with Great sadness that I heard of the passing of fan favorite and WW11 veteran Marty on Sean Hannity's radio show. Marty always would call in at the end of Sean's show with his sharp comments on the events of the day. Marty always appeared at Sean's freedom concerts and I had the priviledge of taking several pics of him with Sean. Sean always sent a limosine for him and his family to come to the event and would always send Marty a big basket of fruit and other goodies at Christmas and his birthday. Like many vets who saw action in war, Marty was reluctant to talk about his experiences storming the beaches of Normandy. When Sean asked him once all he said was "We lost a lot of guys that day Sean." Once when I saw Marty at Sean's Freedom Concert here in New Jersey Sean asked him if he wanted to tell some stories about his experiences and he replied,"I don't want to talk about it Sean. I saw too much." Marty was 90 years old and will be missed. RIP MARTY
