I had 3 uncles on my dad's side who served in WWII and my Grandpa (claimed me as his grandson because his kid wasn't going to have kids) did too.
My grandpa didn't talk about the war at all until he was in the hospital before he passed. He told me a little bit about what he did. He was injured in combat and then became very ill and was sent back home due to that illness.
I don't know much about two of my uncles, but the other one met his wife in Europe. She was a spy for the Allies too!
