@growingupitalian: Over 1.5 million Italian Americans proudly wore the uniform during World War II. Many fought for a country that didn’t always fully accept them — some even while their families were still in Italy. Their courage wasn’t loud. It was steady. It was loyal. And it helped shape the story of America. We remember their sacrifice, their strength, and their love for a country they helped build and protect. Day 16 #fyp #italian #italianamerican

Both of my first generation Italian Americans served proudly in the US military during WWII. They were part of the greatest generation.

My grandfather joined the American Army during WW1. After the war he was given American citizenship. He returned to Italy but that’s what gave my dad the opportunity to come here as a citizen. I’m so proud of my grandfather Giuseppe

I love hearing these bits of history everyday and the way they are presented. I had no idea about the lynchings in the 1800s. Thank you for sharing!
