The sacrifices made back then by those Brave Souls have been lost on today’s Society.

There is absolutely no appreciation of where we would be if Men like this didn’t answer the call.

This young Marine, Andy Biggio, is documenting the sacrifices of WWII service members. He has travelled all over the country to interview them, and have him sign The Rifle. He has taken vets for trips to Normandy, Italy, and Amsterdam. He also runs the Boston Wounded Vets run.

He is amazing. Next up, he’s taking some back to Belgium.

Indeed. Even the Baby-boomer generation.. We were spoiled.. Each generation seems more spoiled than the last. Of course there are exceptions to the rule.. We have survived as a nation thanks to the few who are brave.

Amen, Bro. Truer words never spoken. What passes for “society” here today would have made those boys just shake their heads. I know, my dad was one of em.
