(1/2) My half brother was special ops during Vietnam War. 19 yrs older than me.
Dad was in the navy in WWII. Was at the bombardment of Okinawan.
My paternal grandfather was in a supply unit in France during WWI, but the war was over before he ever really deployed. He'd been in the Nebraska national guard down in Texas and New Mexico during the Pancho Villa raids.
A great great grandmother's brother Henry Bertram immigrated from Germany in 1860 and by early 1862 he'd enlisted in the union army

(2/2) Henry Bertram's unit was at many major battles and was at Appomattox. Another 3rd great uncle Henry Merricks was in the union army, but died of disease before the march on Atlanta had begun.
Three, maybe 4, ancestors in the American Revolution. Capt. Duncan McVicker (1739-1818), Maj. John Cessna (1726-1802), and William Roach (1751-1840). Cessna and McVicker were both at Bunker Hill. Roach at Germantown and Brandywine. Cessna and Roach wintered at Valley Forge. #VeteransDay
