Memorial Day

Memorial Day, this is a day that I traditionally spend some time thinking about my grandfather and watch some sort of war movie. My grandfather died in 1994. My grandfather introduced me to history and it's significance to current and future events. He served in the U.S. Army in World War II serving in France and Germany. His service has always been very dear to me, and I am thankful for his service along with the service of all of the other brave men and women who serve the U.S. military. Typically I enjoy watching movies like Saving Private Ryan, but tonight I'm watching an older CNN documentary that I have on the Cold War. Long live the history buffs!
