My grandfather served in WWI and was injured in France, where he was shot in the leg & nearly lost his leg. He also suffered from chemical gasses which blistered his back so badly, he had to lay on his stomach for months. The gasses also injured his throat such that he had a very raspy voice for the rest of his life. 11.11.18 was the day WWI ended and also my grandfather's 23 birthday.
