And thank for your 6 years of service in 2 wars too. Whoopdeedo.

Although we do not have all the facts most likely his RM had nothing to do with his service for which we are all certainly grateful. I am glad he survived his service. One of my uncles did not as his plane was shot down bombing Germany. Another was shot down over China flying The Hump; other uncles and aunts in the US services survived WWII, as did your father, thankfully. My father survived both WWI and the Spanish Flu while in the army and also lived to age 93. My point is the lender did not lose on the risk it took on lending on your father's property. It knew it could not lose as the we taxpayers would pick up the tab - and we did.
