Tomorrow my daughter and I are going to go over and spend part of the day with him. I can't imagine the things he went through during those years and he doesn't ask very much in return. Just a bit of our time on November 11th to remember.
My grandfather was a WW1 vet. He was also a POW in a German camp. At the wars end he exchanged helmets with a German officer. Sadly the medals he earned and the helment have gone missing. RIP
