My grandad died in a concentration camp
He tripped and fell out his Machine gun tower
/old jokes

my dad's dad fought in the somme in the first world war. he carried ammunition to the front trenches. one time him and his best mate were carrying ammunition on a stretcher, one at either end. A german shell fired in low didn't explode. Instead, it took his friends head off right in front of him. 30 years after the war he would wake up the house with screams from nightmares about his experiences

Screaming
I had a patient that woke the unit up with screams: he'd been in a rubber raft crossing the Rhine in WWII when a shell took off his sarge's head. Sarge was the front guy in the raft, he was paddling in the back. He then by fiat became the commanding officer.
