In Honor of All Who Served!
Major Carroll Houston Teas
Pilot / Pacific Theater

Happy Memorial Day, 2017!

My Uncle Carroll served the entire Pacific Theater as the pilot of a South Pacific inter-island supply plane. He finally came home paralyzed for life from a strain of polio that he contracted while stationed in New Guinea. He died in 1964 from complications of the original disease, but he will never fade from our loving memory of his healing presence in our lives. Thanks to all of you for your great military service to America on this Memorial Day 2017! Our beautiful nation and its freedoms could not last for long without you!
