The Story Behind My AmericaA huge source of pride in my family was my Grandfather and Great Uncle’s career in the Army and my Father’s time in the Navy. My respect for the military started early with trips to aircraft carriers and air shows. We listened to war stories and watched the movie footage of the planes that Dad worked on. It was ingrained in us that the America we live in was not possible without the great sacrifice of our Armed Forces. You can't get through San Diego without seeing the USS Midway and the other Navy ships in the Harbor.
