My grandfather went to France in 1918 at age 23. He was an old man on the line. He made it home, but was never the same person.
He was strong, healthy and fit with a full head of light brown hair.
I saw a picture of him two years after coming home and the difference was shocking.
Two years on and he's still rail thin, gaunt eyed and the hair on the sides of his once nice brown were grey.
It was shocking.
And people like Biden, the Cheney family, the Bush family, etc., are thrilled to continue sending OTHER people’s kids overseas to be damaged and killed.
For me, this is one of the to reasons PDJT needs to be re-elected.
My mother was born in Canada, and came to the U.S. as a little girl with her mother and older brother. Her uncle, my great-uncle served with the 38th Battalion (Ottawa) Canadian Expeditionary Forces. He was conscripted in early 1918 and shipped to France. He was wounded by German machine gun fire on the 2nd of September, and died on 10th of September, two months before the Armistice. He's buried in a British Military Cemetery in Wimille, France. I have some family photos of him. In one he's is sitting on a military horse in uniform. I have no idea where the photo was taken. He was 25 when he died and single. He was the only boy in that family.
