Here's a family story about Grandpa Hardy. As a Sergeant and head cook in the Army, he was often sent ahead with a detail to set up camp. One day while getting the meals going, he was hit in the belly button by a Union sniper. The bullet ricochetted on his belt buckle. His belt buckle saved his life! Honest truth. Susanne Floyd Gunter
