That is one of the reasons I have done so much work in genealogy. My kids have ancestors that fought in Vietnam, WWII, WWI, the Civil War; in the American Revolution and in the French and Indian Wars. In addition to that, they have verifiable ancestors that go back to many European and Scandinavian countries and that information is important to tell us where we came from and helps to get us to where we want to go.
Individual history is important, but our collective history is just as important. Studying that history is a critical factor in determining how we live today and how we will live in the future.
