Grandfather on fathers side drafted into the Luftwaffe at 18 after the invasion of Poland, served on both the Eastern and Western front as a tail gunner.
Great grandfather on mothers side drafted by the Polish Armed Forces in the East, made his way through Iran and Palestine and fought the Germans at Monte Cassino.
Uncle drafted into the Soviet Polish First Army, fought in the Battle of Berlin. He was a pacifist, whenever he had to shoot, he aimed up and let the bullet go nowhere.
All three of them survived the war.
How many of your relatives fought in WW2?
I don't know.
Whoa! That's quite an old foot fetish photo. Nice.
yes
Gee thanks for the input.
Grand father on mother’s side was part of the losers. He even got locked up in a Stalag. At least I have this going for me: «please mr judenstein, my grand father got deported in a concentration camp, I can’t be an antisemite».
I can't find it with reverse image search but an anon posted them with these filenames:

I've checked, it's legitimate.
Looks modern, I know. But still, apparently was a common thing back then.
Neck yourself feetfags, stop shitting up my thread.

No!
VIVE LA REVOLUCION!!!
I'll do without your gypoid bump
My grandad was in the italian navy and did fuck all until his ship blew up while he was on medical leave
My great uncle tho was a radio operator in the italian army. He fought in Africa. Greece and Fucking Russia.
He wasnt in russia for long the the italians capitulated the month he arrived and he retreated thru Poland and saw civilians getting rounded up
I have a grandfather that fought ww1 and another in Korea. Then an uncle that fought in Vietnam. No one immediate that fought in ww2 tho. Had a great uncle that got out of going by being the only male heir. Funny enough he never had kids to pass on the name anyways.
I feel the same, it goes way back actually.
grandfather father side worked in a factory for the germans
grandfather mother side were a soldier, got captured in May 1940, attempted escape but got badly wounded, got healed by the germans then released and died shortly after the war
quite average, nothing fun or interesting here
German American. Had family members fight on both sides. Always wanted to go to Germany since I've been redpilled to try to see if I can find any surviving members descended from great great uncles who answered the Fatherland's call. Don't know if any of them survived the war or had children.
all i ask for is a pretzel
then i will leave your thread
Mine flew a spitfire in the RAF
I get called a subhuman by british flags on Anon Babble
thats why I support jews, pakis, jeets etc replacing them now
Paternal Grandfather was naval intelligence, training to be an airman, flew reconnaissance, still getting his hours up and the war ended, was in the Phillipines
Paternal Grandmother was a signals operator / telegraph girl
Mother's side Grandma was too busy looking after her brothers, Grandfather probably too drunk to be really aware of any war lol.
More distant relatives are still out there in the Libyan desert, when we thrashed the Germans.

I have family that fought not only in WW2, but Korea, the Boer war, the Maori Wars and WW1.
Does it
One grandfather. He fought in the Pacific Islands. He brought back a Japanese officers samurai sword which is pretty cool.
Faggots have always existed unfortunately
I know everyone here is a Wehraboo but idc the American GI is the most iconic outline for a soldier in industrialised warfare.
Who knows, fren...who knows.
My great grandfather was a motorcycle messenger (dispatch rider) in ww2 in the united states army. He once told me that he encountered black soldiers from time to time and would shoot them in friendly fire. I dont know if it was true or not but I hope so.
He brought back a Japanese officers samurai sword which is pretty cool.
Mine brought back a Chinese SKS which was a gift from some Philipinos

I'll take stuff that didn't happen for 500.
It actually did but if it makes you feel better I hate that he fought in it.
Grand father was too young to be drafted in 39-40. He was 18 in 1944 and joined the 2th armored division of general Leclerc when Paris was liberated, fought in Elsass then was accepted at the Saint Cyr military academy, wich was based in Algeria at the time.
Great grand father was colonel. He was wounded during the campaign of France and stayed colonel in the Vichy's army.
Women are whores from the begging of time to the end of times
I once heard it said that my grandpa and all his friends, platoon mates the whole damn brigade, everyone was clapping once for something that sounds like this.
Chinese SKS production didn't start until 1956, you retard. Explain to me how a relative of yours supposedly brought home a Chinese-made SKS from the Philipines after WW2.
Both sides of my parents fought in WW2, and were shot multiple times... I sometimes ponder the irony that MY families history is deemed unimportant, but we should care about remembering the holocaust, etc...
As a result of my grandfather's conscription, and likely seeing untold horrors in ww2, and korea, MY father was raised by a ultra abusive alcoholic. Now, without this happening, I'm never born... so, there's that.
But it's still interesting to consider my entire families lives were tilted off course because of this war we had no business in to begin with. I'm relegated to being a wage slave in this society while many who were refugees from this war somehow amass massive wealth and own a large portion of our country.
Really a testament to the false reality we are all living in. None of this is right. Our country was stolen from us.
My two uncles were in the SS
Time travel
Well clearly I have the gun model wrong.
