PO1 William "Chip" Nagel
LTC Eugene Chu Nothing Quite Like Embarrassing the Hell Out of My Children, Plopping My Ass down in Front of a Mod 28 TTY in the American History Museum Washington, DC and Start Poking. That's What Marine Gunny Taught Me On!

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel you mean the natural history museum of the Smithsonian Where there’s taxidermy? My favorite part. It was nearly as educational when they took the animals out of context and organized scientifically by genus, etc.

Books, zoos, museums, team activities. As much as I could fit in and still keep my job. And lots of cross country trips good for casual conversation and sing alongs. Making memories. Time; you can’t get it back. Make the most of it while you can, you blink and they’re grown. As Christmas gifts for my grandchildren we gave memberships to the vanish animals zoos instead of another plastic toy. We gave and continue to give books. It’s a family tradition. Board games, coloring with them. All time. It’s what they will remember and thrive on. LTC Eugene Chu

Art and art history was one of my favorite classes that I took as an elective. I just hope none of these paintings have been vandalized by people for any reason including the climate change activist types of today that are destroying art trying to save the world LOL.

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel my uncle is a natural artist. He painted paintings with no actual school training.
I'm sure your mother would have appreciated his artwork because his is kind of unique. Some of these paintings were my mother's house such as the nuns walking down the white Adobe passages. After my mom moved to Honduras to die from her dementia, the paintings were removed and shipped to Honduras by ship.
He is now 93 years old and still going strong. No dementia. The picture of my father standing next to the Sacred Heart of Jesus painting that he painted was probably taken before 2002. These are just a fraction of all the paintings he did he probably has 40 paintings.
