Hello, my name is Russell Butler.
I was born in Logan County, WV to parents who immigrated from Calabria, Italy. I was in the Army during World War 2. I was D-day plus 12 hours storming the beaches of Normandy. I spent a good deal of the war in and near Swansea, Wales. After the war, my wife and I got married. She was the daughter of immigrants from Abruzzo, Italy. We made our home in Logan, WV, and had 2 children, with the one launching this trackable living in St. Mary's County, MD. During my life, I was never able to visit or revisit many of these important places in my life. While I am happy to travel anywhere, if you can, please help me checkoff the locations on the other side of this card. Grazie mille! (Thank you very much!)
If the card included with my tag gets lost, if you can, please reprint the following two images at 3.5 x 2 inches and laminate them together so that they are front-to-back. Then check off any places that have already been visited (see above). Thank you!
