(KUTV) Every day like clockwork, you can find John Delliskave, or "Pops," in his workshop.
At 93 years old, he still has some woodworking amazing skills, which he uses to build a variety of items.
"I make a lot of puzzles," he said.
But one of his most prized possessions is in his front yard: an American flag.
"I love that flag. You can see I fly it every day," said Delliskave.
The flag represents freedom to Delliskave, who knows all too well the cost of it.
He fought in the Battle of Iwo Jima--one of thousands of U.S. Marines who stormed the beaches in February on 1945 during World War II.
