Popis: Document from the year 2020 in the subject Politics - Region: Middle and South America,, language: English, abstract: The interest in knowing family traditions is usually a desire that comes to us at a later stage of our lives. In youth we are looking for the future. At the dawn of our lives, we direct all of our efforts to build a career, a family and a heritage. In fact, a legacy. But as the years went on, we eventually began to look back and try to understand the past to be able to answer a very simple question: How did we get here? And when we think in terms of legacy, we certainly try to fit it into a bigger picture. It's like a relay race, in which we'll try to pass a stick. It would not be for another reason that usually comes from our grandparents the initiative to transmit to the grandchildren the stories and'tales'of our ancestors. Rescuing the family tradition is not a complex task when carried out at the right time, while the memory is still alive. Trying to do the same without a thread of the skein, this is an impossible task. Gathering the available data and finding the beginning of the'trail of the past', sweat and a good project are able to do the rest. These days, we have powerful allies in technology and internet. We hope that everyone appreciates the result of this project, produced under a collective effort that motivated us a lot. May he achieve his main goals: to honor the memory of our ancestors, to bring his legacy to the knowledge of new generations and to strengthen family ties.Academic activities (post-graduation level): Master's degree in Military Sciences at the General Staff School of the Army (ECEME - 2002/2003).
