And he's the one requesting to watch these when he gets here, favoring these over cartoons or other kids shows. If I offered him my Larue AR or my WWII era M1 Garand he would take the M1 in a heartbeat. It's up to us to change the mindset of this future generation.
My 19 year old cousin has always been a history buff. Watches History/Discovery channels...etc.. His birthday was just in March and I gave him my 120 year old free mason encyclopedia. Since then he's read most of it and looked up what he didn't know!
