Veterans Day: WWI
My grandfather actually served in WWI (1914-18) in the Army Air Corps ... he was born in 1894, which seems impossibly long ago. Here's a pic of him when he was young (far left) and his father (who immigrated here from France) and his brothers ...
Here's a pic of him later when he was a bird colonel in the army ...
And here he is even later, with me and my sister :) ...

Nice pictures, Crystal. My grandfather served during WWI, too. He didn't go overseas, though, because his whole unit caught the Spanish Influenza. He was born in 1895. Yeah, that does seem a long time ago.
Hi Katherine. I don't think my grandfather went oversees either until WWII.
