Thank you for your service!! I just have a few questions.

What was it like coming home and not having to deal with ration cards and not being under lock and key with a watchful eye everyday?

And what do you think about the current state of soldiers coming home with PTSD?

Also did you ever manage to bring home any trophies and since you were there after the war was over did you get to destroy a lot of nazi propaganda material?

Wow. I wish we had the knowledge back then like we do know to help the wwii vets. You all have had to see some of the worst part of human kind to have ever existed. What was basic training like? I've heard they wanted so many men so quick that they just did some very basic stuff and sent out a lot of people blind.

To the grandson and son: thank you both for your service not only in the military but to your grandfather and father as well. Too many times people forget about those who are aging and as a 28 year old I think it's utter bs. So thank you.

My stepdad has something called Supranuclear palsy and he was just diagnosed with it. He's been suffering for about 5 years now and is 65. Do you think he could learn to use this even though he's not really good with computers? And do you think someone who is could calibrate it without having to call someone in?

This needs to become a thing like now. Use google glass not only to move but also to type etc. this could make the keyboard and the screen input totally separate. Holy crap. Come on reddit. Lets see what you can do.

THANK YOU!!!! He gets so frustrated not being able to speak. He has a masters in English and was a teacher for 30 years or so so he really gets depressed about it. Thank you so much.
