A Loken family gathering, including six of the nine Loken siblings (Ginger behind the camera), sharing their memories of Dad, Les Loken.

Ginger announces a series of TV videos about peace, which is meant to complement the upcoming Ken Burns PBS series about war. And Les Loken (recorded in 2006) tells a peace story.

This was Dad's last video before he passed away on Valentine's Day. I'm sorry I'm so late in posting it on Live Video. I've had many things to attend to.

I'm posting this video for my father's close buddy, Steve Troth, from a previously recorded talk they had in 2005. Dad has been gone for awhile and Steve is failing very fast now. I want to honor him this way while he is still here to see it. The few remaining WW2 veterans that are still alive today are precious living history. Steve was the captain of one of the ships that sailed with General Douglas MacArthur to the Phillipines. I wanted to record a new video of him telling about this, for Veteran's Day, but he was not well enough. He says he will try to do this in the next few weeks. In the meantime, we can all wish him well on this day of remembering. Please take a few moments to leave a comment for Steve.

Gingeronymous gives her thanks to all who subscribed and wrote to her elderly father, listening to his stories and brightening the last few months of his life.

Les Loken continues the story of his WW2 experience, as an advisor to Japan after the War, and his close friendship with a former Japanese commander who fought in the same Pacific arena where he fought during the war. (This is an early YouTube posting.)

The only jet semi truck race in history! Bob Motz Jet Kenworth (black truck on the right hand side of the screen, left lane) vs. Kent Shockley driving Les Shockley's ShockWave Jet Peterbuilt (yellow truck left hand side of the screen). Bob Motz takes the win on the 1/8 mile with a small margin of victory. This is the only time these trucks will ever race, and they were never allowed to race before due to insurance reasons, and concerns over their large parachutes becoming tangled.

Even though I think he's pulling a Steve Jobs, he does a good job of it.
