Message: [QUOTE="ConnHuskBask, post: 2733171, member: 632"] My grandfather is luckily still alive today and is a WWII vet. Coincidentally enough, we were cleaning up some things at the house this weekend and I found his 2nd purple heart, which was presumed to have been missing throughout the years. He was shot twice in Europe (believe France) but luckily was able to survive and is in relatively good health today at 92. There are a lot of other medals but I'm overall I'm just incredibly proud of him and everyone else that risked it all in face of unspeakable terror. When I watch documentaries about WWII and other conflict, I just can't imagine being on the front line like these brave men and women . [/QUOTE]
