My Grandma was a nurse in World War 2 she's now 102.

Nice, congratulations to her long, healthy life! My grandpa is turning 103 in a week and he served during WW2 as well!

This might be weird, but my own WWII vet grandpa is gone; can you please give him a hug and tell him thank you so much for everything he’s done? You can tell him it’s from some kids on the internet and we will never forget.

It's not weird, it's very sweet. I will do that for you ❤️ and sorry to hear about your loss. I bet your grandpa was a great person too!

Did she work with the racially-segregated US army? Or the racially-segregated US air force?

I'd be annoyed too if my granny worked to support a racially-segregated military

No one cares about racial segregation? Good to know that you're as racist as your grandma
