This is an omage to my father,
Warren Alexander Ligget
a Veteran.
He was married and a dad as World War II heated up. He worked/or had worked as an Air-Traffic Controller and he was a pilot.
He joined the US Department of Commerce, Civil Aeronautics Administration.
I believe this photo is in the Control Tower probably in Billlings, Montana
In this photo he is with my mom, Katherine Mary Nave Ligget
This is 1945, in Guam, where he was stationed. (I remember playing with that pith helmet).
He was one of the lucky ones, he got to come home and live a full life with lots of friends, a devoted wife and four loving daughters. He seldom talked about the war but when he did it was with tears in his eyes.
I miss you daddy.
Thank you for your service.
