"If you do not remember your past you are doomed to repeat it"
I find this saying very fitting today. As today is the anniversary of the bombing of Pearl Harbor and the entrance into WWII. I find this a very sentimental day. My oldest uncle on my Dad's side was blessed on this day. My grandpa was not a member of the LDS faith, so I can only imagine the struggle in their home. My Grandpa Wright served in WWII. I don't have a copy of the letters with me at school that he wrote my to my Grandma while he was across the world. I just know that he had some very close calls, and was definitely injured.
This may be why I have such a deep appreciation to those in the military. They go up and leave on their assignments, leaving their families and loved ones behind. So, here is to all of the armed forces out there, protecting our interests at home and abroad. Know there are people here that are supportive of you. Be safe, and may your Holidays be bright.
