A little FYI for Military ID holders. TSA will accept your military ID for boarding.

My grandpa was a 101st 504th "Devils in Baggy Pants" survivor of Bastogne with 3 combat drops, he was with them from the outset in North Africa so the great story in the video below I actually heard from my grandpa in 1988-89 as a division mith. It was not long after I was commissioned... It was only after that he'd share his combat experiences with me. I just fell across this story surfing tonight. When you have an hour, pour a dirnk, and let master story teller Vincent regile you with a poingint life/war story. I'm smiling at grandpa through a little mist... the mith was real.

That was a very interesting story he had. I had a lot of older WWII friends when I was younger. Always enjoyed their stories and just letting them talk because they had a connection with me being in the military. Not that I did anything close too what most of them did. But you could see the look on their face change when a funny story lead into a not so funny story and they’d change the subject.My grandpa was a 101st 504th "Devils in Baggy Pants" survivor of Bastogne with 3 combat drops, he was with them from the outset in North Africa so the great story in the video below I actually heard from my grandpa in 1988-89 as a division mith.

J, yup, never really knew my grandpa was soldier until after I was in.. I think he told me some of the stories to forwarn this young shavetail. Vincent's emotional thoughts on what his father told him on shipping out got me good....
