Newsies The World Will Know

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel - I think us older guys can appreciate technology far greater today than the younglings, since we know what life use to be like. My grandson can't even imagine a world without the internet or computers. ;)

And you're still here to talk about it. But I've learned that telling kids to not do something because it's dangerous or not smart, because you know better, just means they're gonna do it too.

CPO David R. D. - Damn that is Harsh and Honest! Why I Always Trusted You to Have My Back!

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel - I think our kids and grandkids benefit from knowing most of our past, but I don't think they need to know all the mistakes we made. I also think we can learn a lot from history, we don't have to make the same mistakes. My goal as a parent and grandparent, is that my kids and grandkids will understand the importance of a good work ethic, and that a person can accomplish a lot, if they set their minds to it. I knew all of my grandparents, and I know they worked hard.
The beautiful thing about kids and grandkids, they still love us regardless. ;)
