Remember that "Momma" even originally wanted a male puppy and to name him after Pfc. Bernard Stanley Czarnecki, WW2, DOW (בנימין שמריה בן יהודה יוחנן ושרה אסנת צהרנצקי, ז''ל). As for Reilly, she is a "great-great-grandniece" to Pfc. Bernard S. Czarnecki, and:
- A "grandniece" of a retired Air Force Colonel
- A "grandniece" of an almost-Vietnam War vet ("almost" because the war ended just as he was called to duty)
- A "once-removed cousin" of two Marines (one of them being an in-law cousin) and two Army soldiers (with one being a First Lieutenant, MSC)
- The "dogter" of a friend of an Air Force veteran, whom she has yet to meet
- The "dogter" of a friend of a Marine's aunt, whom she's already met
- The "great-great-grandniece" of a late VFW Commander and ACE member whom served in the European Theater and countless other WW2 veterans, including Pfc. Czarnecki (See above.)
- Countless other veterans

Many of Reilly's "relatives" are from the only state outside of Maryland in which Reilly has been. So is one of "Momma"'s friends whom was in the Air Force. |
