Another war story
My Grandad always loved to tell stories about his part in the war but we didn't realise just how much he embellished them to make them sound better to our young ears. There was one time he told us about when he was cornered by some 'nazty bastard' but managed to get him 'clean in the chest' as the other guys aim wasn't as good. He made it sound like a standoff scene from Hign Noon. He didn't know at the time but this was caught on film and years later we'd seen the actual incident and you could pretty clearly see that Grandad just shot at him first.

He also said he could do the kessel run in under 12 parsecs. Lying sod.

somehow the first time I read this I ignored the last line
and was thinking "wow, they got film of his grandad shooting someone!"

Did he also refuse to pay his fatass mob boss?
