Mr. Harding and The Twins

      I very much enjoy watching Sunday Morning every week. Today was much more enjoyable even with same repeat segments, because you see, in part it was about two little boys who had a fascination playing battleship which then became a fascination with planes, aircraft carriers and battleships. Sorry kids, I did forget your names, but I'm sure many people are very proud to see the hearts of each of you, and the respect you showed to Mr. Harding.
     Mr. Harding is a vet. The twins became fascinated with him once they discovered his name, what he was connected to and that he served during war-time. An elderly gentleman, Mr. Harding has all of his faculties and sat in a chair in a room awaiting a meeting with the twins. The twins enter, not knowing that man a distance away when suddenly one twin smile and asks, looking at Mr. Harding: Mister Harding? The man smiles an ocean wide as the smaller sized twin rushes to hug him and he keeps on hugging him as the other twin joins. You can see through out the personalities of these twins, not identical.
    The passion and emotion in the smaller sized twin is heartfelt. He shows it as emotions arise. Mr. Harding walked steps with the boys on ships, spoke about planes and in the interview showed his emotions too as he spoke to the boys about his war time, something he never spoke about before. Maybe it was all about timing, or simply all about the respect two very young boys who loved playing battleship, deeply had for a man,a man named Mr. Harding.
