Well my Great Grandpa (or Opa) was in WWII... forced to join the Germans at 14 or 16 and fight in Stalingrad.. he is MIA which I still belive he is (nalining some russian chicks making fun of there way,etc) We have letters and pictures just my father won't show them to me.

My Great Grandmother ran a blackmarket in Germany selling mainly Flour... I still would like to know where the money from that went?

My grandpa was a flight engineer on a B-29 over Japan, and my great uncle was a tailgunner in a B-17, he qualified for pilot, but they wouldn't let him due to his color blindness, which doesn't make sense, then why would they let him gun, unless he had a certain color blindness, different colors. Well, the B-17 got shot down, over Germany, I believe, not sure, the crew wasn't found till sometime after the war ended.

move to america and get that shit back, my grandpa was too young to serve i think, also since he lived in bosnia i dont think we put up much resistance to adolf, so he spent alot of time running from those bastards and almost getting killed once
