I was born in Fremont, California, but my parents and my whole family were born in Poland and came to the U.S. years ago. So, when I was young kid, I never knew what to consider myself. Was I an American or a Pole? Or was I a Polish-American? 

This is a short story about how I learned about myself. Maybe it will be helpful to other scouts who are trying to figure out the same thing for themselves.
