Hahaha idk from what I hear he was pretty stern but he was pretty racist.

Most people of the time were. Im not excusing it but just saying.

Be Yourself

Speaking of soldiers... My grandfathers uncle (?) fought in The First Battle Of El Amain (Egypt, World War 2, opposition led by Rommel the "desert fox") and won the Victoria Cross, the most prestigious medal in the British Commonwealth.

"...intense machine-gun fire held up the company to which Private Gurney belonged and inflicted heavy casualties on it, including killing or wounding all the officers. Private Gurney, realizing the seriousness of the situation, charged the nearest machine-gun post, silencing the guns and bayoneting three of the crew. He bayoneted two more at a second post before a grenade knocked him down. Picking himself up, he charged a third post and disappeared from view..."

Is that a badass or what?

You guys have all this cool heritage. I have no clue what my family was. I do know I have a few that were in world war 2 and Vietnam. Oh and apparently my great grandpa was in world war I but fought for Germany. I know not cool. but that's as far as I know. Haha

If they fought then thats fairly impressive. As for him fighting for Germany i would not say that its "not cool" because
1. The German side was not so bad back then
2. He probably didn't have a choice

"O-oh, okay," she stuttered, not expecting to be offered that quickly, but she did just walk up to them so she wasn't sure why she was so surprised. Closing her eyes as if to make more suspense for herself or like she were drawing out a number for a lottery, Julia opened them to see that she had a brown M&M. "Favorite memory?...I kinda remember a bit of my 5th grade camping trip. Since the school I was in at the time was a private school, the entire 5th grade students were only about 30 in all...I think. Anyways, every night during that camping trip, me and my friends would always sneak out of the cabin, snatch some snacks from the mess hall, and going over to the lake to hang out late at night. During one of those nights, our teacher almost caught us in the act, but we managed to scurry back into the cabin without getting caught. We were definitely laughing quietly to ourselves while the teacher goes and blames the guys instead," she explained a funny memory she could remember, she could definitely remember how adrenaline pumping the sprint was back to the girls' cabin from the lakeside. Just the thought of it made her laugh a bit herself.

Jackson laughed a little as he had similar memories except he and his friends were typically the ones who were blamed.
