I have copies of records obtained from the National Archives showing that a member of my family has served in every American War from the Revolution to Iraq. The only exception is during the Indian Wars following the Civil War. My son in law has served twice in Iraq and my son, US Army Reserve, leaves Tuesday for Iraq.
