BreetAh, families. There are many things that happen during a child’s life when they are growing up… that make lasting impacts. We all experience this, so it’s nothing new to say. For my part of lasting impacts, an aspect of a family member bewildered me for years.
Grandfather
Most families have a member that has served in some war that the United States has fought. Within mine, my grandfather was in the Army and fought in World War II. He was stationed in the Pacific.
Growing up the entire family knew that the best gift to give him for his birthday, holiday, etc. was any book or video tape(s) related to World War II. He was completely obsessed with reviewing that part of history.
I remember asking him why he would read anything he could get his hands on about World War II. The answer was always the same, “something isn’t right.” Heck of a statement to make to a kid that is just going to ask more and more questions. He never did answer the question either. He only smiled slightly and continued on with what he was doing.
Fast Forward to Now
The headline today reads “Japan confirms ‘secret’ U.S. nuclear pacts.”
What a coincidence because (like I do) I click around on the net to find out why that senator made the comment about ’the net should never have come into existence.’ (Something to that effect not long ago.) The basic “what’s out there that I shouldn’t know?” The word “duh” comes to mind since everything is on the net. All one has to do is weed through and accept the parts they want to accept to get more knowledge.
Well, the other day, two maybe four weeks ago, I came across the work of Jim Marrs and Joseph Farrell, which then lead me to another fellow. (Ironically, both of these fellows gave an interview to the same people. Which by the by, thank you.) I got to find out why in the world my grandfather was completely obsessed with World War II.
Short and Sweet
If you haven’t already…make the time to dive into history. Maybe start out with these two fellows to find out what World War II was…is…
I’m not saying much about what I have learned. Why? Even I am having to start from the ground up to rebuild my knowledge/foundation of history during this time.
With that knowledge/foundation, I have been working forward to the now. It’s a relatively small period, sixty years. I mean, what is sixty or so years? Our history is much older…as we all know…so I would say just check it out.
Only you can come to your own conclusions.
