- Introduction:
"In those days it was guts and innovation, where you'd done something, or you could figure it out. So, everybody had to pull together. We were thrusted into it, and the only thing that saved us was the people were ready to fight."
–Ken Wentworth
It's hard to read the above quote and not think, 'my, how different are things in our Country today?'. It begs the question, if we were thrust into another global conflict, could America pull together once again and fight as one? Thankfully, we have the best example set before us...the "Greatest Generation". Now, if we would only look at and study this example, and learn how 'fighting for a cause greater than yourself' is done. The WWII generation could teach us that. A good start would be to lay down the devotion to self so prevalent in our society today, then follow the example of veterans like Ken Wentworth and countless others from yesterday...realize there's something bigger than myself worth dying for.
