My Grandfather was a glider infantryman in WWII, an advisor
in Korea, and lost one of his sons, my uncle Gary Edwards, in
Vietnam. I worked in his auto repair station during high
school and he flew his flag in front daily. One day while I
was sweeping the oil dry out of the bays it began to sprinkle
rain. He told me to go get the flag and I said "gimme a
second." He said, "It is raining, go get the flag
NOW." Well I popped off my mouth about how he should
cool it, it isn't going to melt or some such typical teenage
comment.
My grandfather is the toughest man I've ever met. He
explained once that he thought basic training was some sort
of country club during WWII, because he was used to hard work
anyway, and at home he didn't have indoor toilets or hot
running water! And when I said whatever it was that I said to
him, he turned deep crimson and I thought, "God save me,
he's going to kill me for talking back." Instead tears
welled up in his eyes and he squeaked out "You don't
understand what this family has paid for the right to fly
that flag." Then he turned his back on me and went out
and got the flag. I just stood there feeling like the
smallest person to ever live. Those words cut me so deep. I
wish the entire country could have heard them.
[ I ] hope that this Nation might yet have enough people who
understand the cost of liberty to turn things around.
