A World War II Valentine’s Story

How many of us remember our first young love?

Probably quite a few.

However, if that first romance occurred some 70 years ago, how many would still remember it well enough and still cherish it deeply enough to write a screenplay for a movie celebrating such love?

That is exactly what 90-year-old, World War II veteran John Tschirhart has been dedicating virtually every waking hour of his life to for the last ten years or so.

I wrote about John’s fascinating love story a couple of months ago.

Here it is in Valentine’s “form.”

Happy Valentine’s Day and may your valentine be as thoughtful.
