This is a photo of my grandfather, Marvin Clarence Eans, Jr., left, my great-grandfather Marvin, Sr., and my great-uncle Jack Eans. It was taken in February, 1931, in Kentucky. My Grandfather would have been seven-years-old at the time. He worked for the General Electric Company for 37 years and was a veteran of WWII and fought in the Battle of the Bulge. In 1999, I gave him a blank book for Christmas and asked him to write about his life and give it to me the next Christmas. He did. This is what he wrote about his experience in WWII.
