It's kind of funny, if I wasn't deaf I would have gone into the military when I came of age, but my dads side is from England and my moms is German but they never ever talk about World War II or ancestry or whatever. My grandma has a book and shows how every one of my ancestors was up to about 1600 (English side was a royal loyalist soldier as far back as it goes.)
Feels kind of bad to break the line but I can't do anything about it, but my dad was a Marine and never killed anyone. Maybe the reason my lineage survived is either A they're really good at war or B really good at keeping their head down when the axe is swinging. They didn't exactly keep really good records.
I'm a love child of people that like to fight tooth and nail. Maybe that's why the German language gives me heart flutters. Who knows. Life is weird. I'm weird. I'm alive. Let's go.
