Hi Hiders,
While going through my Dad’s stuff I came across a few awesome pieces of history. Not only my own, but our countries.
My Father’s Grandfather immigrated to to the United States and enlisted to fight in the Great War. I have his original documents of the time, and welcome everyone to check out the “small” and larger details highlighting his trip from immigrant solider to United States Citizen.
My Great Grandfather’s Discharge Papers
Then upon return the City of Bridgeport welcomed him home
In 1924 he was Naturalized as a US Citizen. I will note my Grandmother did not receive her citizenship in 1942, where as my Father was born in 1940.
I wish I had the same for his Father but this is awesome
Here are the papers from Italy.
The Man himself, my Great Grandfather Leonardo,
