My grandfather was a fighter pilot. The army wanted him to train other pilots, but he wanted to fly in the war. They told him that if he transferred to the war he'd have to fly cargo and passenger planes, so he put in for a transfer and that's what he did throughout the war.

He never talked about the war much, and died almost 12 years ago, so I can't ask him any more.
