Interesting LA Times article, CW Vets Trauma & DNA

Ladies and Gentlemen,

It has apparently been a while since I posted anything on any of the message boards.

I found this article to be very interesting. I have said for a very long time that we pass on memories through our DNA to our descendants. An event that can have such a profound impact on one's life that it is ingrained into our DNA. I have always referred to it as genetic imprinting.

The memories manifest themselves in ways we don't yet understand. Deja Vu may be one way. People that feel like they have been reincarnated may be another. Fascinating stuff!

What Civil War soldiers can teach us about how trauma is passed from generation to generation

Enjoy!
