14. lol at the great-grandfather stuff

your ancestors fought for kids' right to wear flag shirts? Really?

My father joined the Marine reserves for the money, no idea of going to war. When we got into WWII, he considered deserting but chickened out and that's why he fought for his country. My grandfather was drafted into WWI, that's why he fought for his country.

But that's just my own ancestors. Who knows, maybe your people fought for the kids' shirts.
