WW II Patriot

Post by Chase » Fri Jun 07, 2013 12:26 pm

I was digging through my Schrade Files and came across a small newspaper clipping with a story that I thought would be worth sharing. I have attached a copy of the printing for your preview!

This young man is a true patriot!

The America of today can't imagine the nationalistic fervor, the patriotic pride of our parents and grandparents.

This country has become more about sub-groups than about it's unity as a nation.

As bad as they may have been, I do long for the "good ol' days"

That's a very nice clip Chase, thanks for sharing that.
