Given to My Mother by Ed Stahl
My Dad gave this West Point Military Academy ring to my mother as an Engagement Ring on D Day, 6 June 1944. Dwight D. Eisenhower's son was in the graduating class along with my father, Ed Stahl. Everyone expected General Dwight D. Eisenhower to deliver the commencement speech but that did not happen because the General was occupied with the implementation of the D Day activities, which at that time was a secret operation.

Engagement Day (6 June 1944)
Ed Stahl always said, "I got it all on D Day". That's because on this day (6 June 1944), he got his wings, his diploma, and his "girl" all on the same day. It was also on this day that the Allied Forces began their triumph over tyranny. Pictured to the right is my father, Ed Stahl with his fiancé, Dolores -- who became my mother.
