I was thinking guys, why do we do what we do and research about one of the most tragic events in history? I have come up with some things. This is a very sobering and confusing question. I am very passionate about WWII as are we all, but why? Of course there's the reason that we don't want it to happen again but I think it's more than that. There's so many veterans whom I've met that just make me proud to have the freedom I have today. I want to respect those men in whatever way I can, thus begins my study. There's so much history in this period of time, it really is never ending. In my passion I believe is a respect and reverence for the men of whom I am so grateful for their sacrifice. History is compelling to me and therefore I study.
