Duane Sherman is soon to be 96 years old and he doesn’t feel much like celebrating his birthday, this December 30th.

Until his daughter, Sue Morse, went to Facebook and asked anyone out there listening to send him a birthday card.

The WWII Navy veteran earned a purple heart for a historic mission he survived in 1944.

He was a chief sonar man on the USS Lamson.

You can call this a happy birthday or a thank you for your service.
