@TheComfortableSpotPodcast Because my father was a soldier who lived through the attack on Pearl Harbor, his brother assisted in the liberation of the Netherlands, my mother's brother saw the site of the massacre at Gardelegn and captured an SS officer, another uncle was in the landing at Anzio and marched into Russia, seeing death everywhere:
