Their Service, Their Story, Preserving the Military Memories of Dad and Pops
A chapter dedicated to courage, family, and the stories that shaped a generation.
Some stories become part of a family’s heartbeat — the ones about courage, sacrifice, and devotion.
For many fathers and grandfathers, their years in the military shaped not only who they were, but the values they passed down: discipline, faith, and perseverance.
That’s why What I’d Love to Know, Dad and What I’d Love to Know, Pops include a dedicated Military Service chapter (Chapter 13, Page 145) — a space to preserve those memories for future generations.
This chapter goes beyond facts and medals. It invites reflection on how service molded their character, influenced their outlook on life, and deepened their love for family and country.
It’s a chance to capture the unseen side of military life — the friendships formed, the letters written home, and the quiet strength of coming back to build a new life.
🎖️ Whether he served overseas or on home soil, every story of service deserves to be told.
When those stories are written down, they connect generations. They help children and grandchildren understand not only what their fathers and grandfathers did — but who they became because of it.
💙 This holiday season, give Dad or Pops a keepsake journal that helps them preserve those experiences.
Their stories deserve to be remembered — and shared.
