re: What is your duty as a man?

My grandfather taught me early on that family above all else. We were in Dallas at the furniture market back in the mid 80’s. Going to dinner and he hailed a cab. Opened the door for my grandmother to get in and a dude jumped in front of her trying to steal the cab.

My grandfather leaned into the backseat and dragged the dude out and beat his arse in front of the Hilton in downtown Dallas.

After he was done he looked at me and said never let another man disrespect your wife and get away with it.

He was at the Battle of the Bulge with Omar Bradley’s 12th Army division.
