RIP.

My grandfather was a combat engineer that went ashore at Omaha during the 1st assault wave. When I was a boy he told me how you could hear the Scots playing the pipes over the din of battle and also how the Brits would break for tea even though shooting was still going on.

My Father was also in the combat engineers and interestingly, he too used to tell us about the British and their tea. He said some of ours were just as bad about coffee.
