Sometimes country came before family.

For those of us who are or were fortunate enough to have Veteran’s in our family, and have them around to hear their stories of bravery and heroism, we should take a moment this weekend to remember their sacrifices and appreciate what they mean for the every-day freedoms we take for granted.

If you don’t have any military service in your family…are you sure? Find out! This weekend, until Monday, May 27th, Ancestry.com is offering free access to all draft, enlistment and service records.

Take a break from the BBQs and dig into your family’s history a little this weekend. You might be surprised!
