Three Generations of American & American Made

[Gunny 240]

Some pictures are worth more than any words can describe.  During the time that our Flag was at half-mast on 9/11/21, the wind whipped, popped and slightly tattered the US and Marine Corps Flags being flown.  Sunday morning, my youngest son and 3 year old grandson, Nolan, wanted to help me replace both and raise back.  A perfect time for a Dad/PawPaw to share some of the best time with Son and Grandson.  New Flags were attached and raised appropriately, while providing a short narrative on the meaning and why we do it.  Nolan was very attentive and seemed to understand, even at a young age.  (Maybe just the pride from his PawPaw).  Once this was accomplished, we followed it up with a ride on the "Red One", as Nolan calls it.  857, the beginning of my relationship with WH.  This was my Dad's first of 6.  I call it the 4GEN WH.  Each of his Kids/Grandkids/Great Grands  have been on this Tractor.  

Just thought I would share.  The little things seem to make the best memories.

 

Gunny,

Children of all ages understand attitude and your example of reverence for our flag will become a part of his basic attitude if reinforced from time to time.    Good job PawPaw.
