MRC GENERATIONS: OJ & Wally Littrell–Father & Son

Generations…
…a tribute to Father – Son service in the Military, but as information was compiled we discovered not just father and sons but also grandfather and grandsons, husband and wives and great-grandfathers and great-granddaughters. As a result of these discoveries we changed the name to “Generation” and present to you examples of continued multi-generational service.
