I saw you post on Lisa's thread about all that WWII stuff. I think its a riot when I read about this stuff being peoples grandparents stuff and it is my parents stuff and Im not that old! I just have old parents...lol. Or one old parent. My dad served in WWII along with 2 of his brothers and one of my uncles on my mom's side. My grandfather was Navy in WWI. Yeah...I had really, really old parents!
I have my grandfathers discharge paperwork from WWI.
My dad has all his medals from WWII in a shadow box and his paperwork at his house and I think it is to go to my middle son when he dies because my son was the one that went into the Marines to "be like Papa"...lol. My dad gave a ton of stuff that was Marine Corps related to my son already. He has a brass bell with the eagle, globe and anchor attached to his front porch.
