His funeral services were held yesterday at the World War II Museum.

Think about your freedom that was won for us all by great men like Lawrence Brooks.
May Mr. Lawrence Brooks Rest In Peace!

I belong to a Facebook group, World War II planes and their pilots. Reading their stories and viewing the photos shows how much they indeed belong to the greatest generation. Rest in peace and let freedom ring!
