Grandpa said he didn't backpack across Europe when he was our age. He "bombed the shit out of it." TFM.

      If that grandpa fought in WWII, then he can do whatever he damn well pleases.

    So your grandfather is around 85-90 years old? Sounds pretty unbelievable to me for someone who is 20 to have an almost 90 year old grandfather. Nice job Timmy Tryhard

      I’m 19 and my grandfather served in the Army Air Corp in WWII. Bombed Normandy on D-Day. It is certainly possible.

      he would have been 18 in 1945 so not really WWII age except when it’s basically almost over. Not a big deal, though, just pointing it out. My grandfather, too, fought in Korea and died last year. God I miss him.

    5. Yea man, it’s tough losing someone you love and respect. I had to speak at his funeral, barely kept it together.

      ^Yeah well fuck you grammar police. And Freeto, same here. He was a quiet man who lived a simple middle class life. Bu he established the foundation for me to succeed while providing the values of sound morals, good work ethic, respect, as well as love after being with his widowed wife for 60 years. As far as I’m concerned he’s one of the greatest men whoever lived and anybody who can say that of their grandfather had a special role model.

      I’m 23 and my grandfather is 91. Co-piloted a B-24 Liberator over Germany and Italy. Never underestimate the longevity of America’s greatest generation.
