my grandpop

my dad called a little while ago to let me know that my uncle stanley bednarczyk (my dad's mom's brother) had written a story about my grandfather (my dad's dad) and his experiences in world war II, something that my grandfather had thus far refused to talk about for all these years. well, my dad knew he had been in the battle of the bulge, but i don't think anyone knew anything beyond generalities.

it's a really good story in the polish american journal, and my grandfather doesn't know it exists yet. hasn't been printed and delivered just yet, but it's on the website. check it out!

always knew grandpop was cool, but this is awesome to read a bit about his life and his courage in war. and i can't even begin to imagine having a best friend taken out right before my own eyes.
