>>510128517>Its impossible for me to imagine what you and your family experienced What's funny is that despite the odds, all of my great grandfathers survived the war somehow.
Grandfather on fathers side drafted into the Luftwaffe at 18 after the invasion of Poland, served on both the Eastern and Western front as a tail gunner.
Great grandfather on mothers side drafted by the Polish Armed Forces in the East, made his way through Iran and Palestine and fought the Germans at Monte Cassino.
Uncle drafted into the Soviet Polish First Army, fought in the Battle of Berlin. He was a pacifist, whenever he had to shoot, he aimed up and let the bullet go nowhere.
All three of them survived the war.
