Not that i know of no :/
Both my grandparents were alive and still alive today but during WW2 they were rather young. I was discussing with my uncles and father the other day what my dead grandfather did in the war but sadly they don't know, it's not that it was a sensitive subject, it just didn't really come up which is a shame, apparently he saw a lot of action in North Africa and Italy, particularly Venice.
thats really selfish. £100? seriously. thats pathetic tbh. he could of atleast consulted with someone else.Quote:

My great auntie who is 100 and my great uncle :)
My grandad was a bomb defusal man, average life expectancy was a few months at most, he survived the whole war.
im not sure about WW1 or WW2, but my grandad was in the army and he fought in the Hong Kong riots.
All four of my grandparents defended Switzerland. All four survived. One kept all his guns etc, quite interesting!
Now only 1 grandma is alive. Rest died naturally
well my granny's 99 so she must have, but never really discussed it with her. Basically she was popping out the kids when it was going on, and they lived in Birmingham I think, nothing too exciting. My (dead) grandad used to man the big lights and guns to shoot down air crafts I think, quite cool :)
My remaining living grandparents survived.
