I was talking to my Father and got information I never knew!
In 63 years I was NEVER told he tried to enlist to fight in Korea.
I was never told my Step Grand Father survived 7 Beach Landings in the Pacific during WWII.
I was never told I might be related to Lieutenant General Leslie Richard Groves Jr.

I always assumed when I enlisted and became a ParaTrooper in the 82nd AirBorne, I was the first in my family memory to serve.
