Sons of Guns is for me!
I appreciate the guest post, Julie Lindsey
Hey guys, it’s Steve again. My favorite educational TV show has quickly come to be “Sons of Guns” on the Discovery Channel. I watch the show on my satellite tv that also has directstartv.com. I like this show because I get to know more about Congressional Medal of Honor recipients, sharp shooters, gun collection owners, and former war heroes who have retired to unhappy lives. A recent episode I watched was about the flamethrower. This man who had served in WWII had an old flamethrower that he used to kill people with, specifically Nazis. The team from Sons of Guns set about to fix the flamethrower so that Will could get back to his toasty ways. The main hangup that Will had was that he had some old childhood fears of burning people to death that he ended up realizing in WWII, giving him severe emotional trauma. I really felt for Will because when I was a kid I used to burn grasshoppers with magnifying glasses. When I was a young adult I accidentally burned my family’s house down. Don’t worry, no one was hurt! Still, I could understand how Will would have some serious reservations about getting his old flamethrower back to working condition. The Sons of Guns guys were very kind to Will and helped talk him through his reservations. This show was great and you should watch it.
