A personal lineage
I just found out my great grandfather on my Dad’s side was in the Black Watch which was a royal Scottish Highlander. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Watch).
My grandfather was in the navy in WW II and landed boats on the shores of Iwo Jima. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Iwo_Jima).
If I have the facts right, on my mothers side my great grandfather was a scientist who worked in research for Proctor & Gamble during the peak of their researching and experimenting. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Procter_&_Gamble)
My grandfather, who also fought in WW II, later on became a scientist and a futurist, working for GE predicting the future in efforts to advance scientific research. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dandridge_M._Cole).
So on one side I’m descended from scientists and on the other side, fighters.
What the hell does that make me?
Sounds like a good combination for a superhero, or at least a super villain, hopefully.
I guess I’ll find out soon enough.
