 My little sister didn't know who won the Civil war, or who was in it for that matter. The younger generation (Including mine) are completely oblivious to the importance of history. All I ever heard in History class was, "Why do we need history, it doesn't matter to me what happened in the past". And it really bothers me. I love history, I found it fascinating. I was a history major until I decided to join the military. I had a friend up 'till a couple of days ago didn't even know who the vice president was. It's really sad. Godbless, Tadpole.

You did not place your hand on the Constitution and swear to uphold the Bible."
