I think any child can get the service record. My mom did a long while after my grandpa passed and their was certainly some surprises he never talked about to anybody.

I’ve seen 4 generations of pigeons grow up outside my NYC apartment. They live in the space where our AC unit should be. Free and excellent nest real estate lol. That being said I had to try and rescue one once and it was a really terrible experience.

I’ve thought about having my dad request my grandfathers medals. But I sorta feel like that would be disrespectful, since he clearly didn’t want anything to do with his time in the war. Maybe I should honor that. The curiosity is there though.

I didn't know that! My grandpa also destroyed everything from the war and never talked about it, except to his father who has long since passed. I don't know why this wasn't destroyed, perhaps for religious reasons or maybe he just forgot. Recently uncovered it in an old storage container.

Oh, this wasn’t my child or my student (I was a science teacher at the time). I found it displayed on a classroom wall with all the other drawings that were submitted as part of the Ender’s Game unit.

Maybe im 5' 12"
Because whenever I go to the doctors and get prescribed drugs they question my height if I say im 6' and they question my height when I say im 5'11". Every time I have to explain im like right on the line between the 2 heights.

My grandfather threw all of his military stuff away when he got back and never once talked about his experience. I’m always so curious about his time in the war, what it was like to be Jewish. He refused to carry a gun because of his religion, so he became a medic. I hope he had a prayer book like your grandfather’s.
Did you know you can request a family members medals from the military? Only the eldest child or something can request them though.

Neat! That’s a 30 minute rabbit hole of Chicago history, but interesting.

Boiling water and collecting the steam is distillation. Reverse osmosis uses a semi-permiable membrane to separate the impurities from the water.
