I grew up around veterans...
My Dad was a L-2 Grasshopper pilot in WWII.
Flew artillery spotting... low, slow & unarmed.
Most of his friends & my uncles were WWII veterans (many pilots)... my brothers & I were fortunate to hear their stories.
Two of my brothers were AF veterans... my oldest was Viet Nam era, later ended up in missile silos, as a "Guardian of Armegeddon".
Next older brother was radar systems tech... got sent everywhere.
Oh... and I'm named after my great-great-grandfather, a Civil War veteran (Dad still has his calvary sword)
I have highest respect & gratefullness to all who have served their country.
