I know for sure one was in the Navy and was legitimately in a sinking ship, something about having to literally watch his friends die while they were escaping. He never ever talked about his life in the Navy; had that sort of aloofness ya know

Several times he should have died but circumstances happened that prevented it. Like he was supposed to go on patrol in a Jeep to make sure this road was cleared of landmines and one of his buddies switched him shifts. His buddy hit a landmine and died.

No one more immediate than a great grandfather has served that I can think of for me

It's kind of a common thing for a lot of veterans, very aloof and very anti-social when it comes to their experiences in wars like WW2 and Vietnam.

Yeah my Uncle would not talk about it. He still had a lot of PTSD. He would wake up at night still thinking he was in Vietnam.

When we stayed the night with my Cousin my Aunt warned us to stay away from him if we heard him talking crazy in the night.

She had to go calmly talk to him and bring him back.

He helped several of his buddies get full disability with the VA for Agent Orange. That stuff was horrible.

He passed like 7 or 8 years ago. I think he was just 68 when he passed away. He requested full military honors and to be buried at a Veteran's Cemetery.
