[QUOTE="Raido Free America, post: 3967279, member: 45328"] [B]My parents generation, kids that had to grow up during the greaty depression, had a very hard time indeed! None more than both of my parents. They both lost a parent as a child, and were forced to assume a heavy responsibility at a young age, during hard times, so bad, many adults couldn't survive! They were cheated out of being a child, but it wasn't all bad! This generation, by being forced to learn how to cope with hard times, aquired the VERY SKILLS, self relience, self confidence, patents, charity, compassion, and determination, they would soon need to win the battle, that saved the free world from REAL TERNARY, AND SLAVERY! They EARNED the title, the GREATEST GENERATION! My 90 year old father, a wounded WW2 combat veteran, after my mother passed away, bought a set of .22 pistols. He tried to make holsters for them, but that didn't turn out well. He then went to Mock Brothers saddlery that is near where he lived in Sand Springs, and ordered a double rig hosters and belt, for these pistols! These guys do great leather work, and this was a great looking rig. It occured to me years later, that he was never allowed to be a boy, and have stuff like this, but he, and mom, always worked hard to make sure we had the things they never had!
