Jeff,
How come he was not called up until late in the war?
Was it due to being married with kids or reserved occupation or purely luck of the draw?

Lovely little story anyway.

served in the United States Army for a year, a day and thirty minutes

he came home to children who didn’t know who he was and were afraid of him

Exactly the same for my Father-in-law, when his Dad came home.
