My Granddad was at D-day, my dad spotted him in one of the films from the day
He also ended up at Arnham and was there after the damn busters had blown the damns. Got photos of him at one the damns, top guy.

My grandads were too old to have been in WWII - died before I was born
my grandmother remembers WWI though, but then she is a bit nuts

WWI makes me go all funny, like when I saw Harry Patch on the TV last year at the Cenotaph
