Ken I have the honor of coming from a long line of military men in my family. From the coloniel wars to Iraq. My grandfather served in the civil war along with his four brothers. However my grandfather was a POW and died in Florence Stockade,SC..The other three made it back. I also had a cousin who died in the war. And a cousin that served in the 68th Ohio and became a Major General and had Earned the Medal of Honor, He was John Wilson Sprague. And two uncles that served in WWII one a B-17 Pilot the other fighter pilot. My grandfather served in WWI with the 28th Division and so on. As for myself I spent 10 years in the Air Force as an In Flight Refueler, and 16 years in the Army.
