Patricia Overmeyer - Damn! You are Challenging! Love It! My History makes Me a Little More "Culturally Aware" "Woke" So to Speak! Raised in Cincinnati, German, Irish, Black Community. I'm a German Catholic American, My "Sponsor" at Confirmation was "Big Pete McCarthy" an Irishman. I Know about the "Troubles". How It Played Out in My Career as a Navy Spook. Someone Set Me Up to Die, Put a Contract on Me! Problem being they Hired "Family" So to Speak the IRA to Take Me Out! I'm Still Here!

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel - When Mom decided to take a European tour (mid 70s), she wanted to go to England. My visa was denied because of my paternal grandmother's last name. Her father and most of the family had been Fens, then IRA. And one has his name on a wall in Mexico City as part of the Irish Brigade. Learned a lot more of my grandmother's family history thanks to that visa denial.

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel - I love that song. Someday maybe I'll be able to go to Ireland and feel the sod beneath my feet.
