I believe I read somewhere that Obama’s (white) grandpa is a World War II vet... Can anyone verify that?

Stanley Dunham served in the US Army - - was in Patton’s 3rd Army. Don’t know his job.

Stanley Dunham worked on oil rigs during the Depression. After the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, he signed up for service in World War II and marched across Europe in Patton's army. Madelyn Dunham went to work on a bomber assembly line.
