    We had to pull my grandfather from the nursing home (God rest him. Left is at 104)

    We had to pull him because he kept telling the younger residents “I killed the Nazis once I can kill you again”

    Hell of a man. Side note he’s also part of the reason rabies isn’t a big thing in America. He was a chemist for the board of health. Helped to deploy a vaccine that could be put into bait for wild animals to eat.

    Another side not: my dad was a trump supporter, my grandad was too old to go vote. My dad used his vote to vote democrat on his behalf . Purely out of respect for my mother’s dad.

    Hell of a man.
