From NBC: A Veteran finally goes to College in his 90's
Posted in * Culture-Watch, Military / Armed Forces
My grandfather went back to college in the early 70s when he was in his early 70s and a veteran of WWI (Infantry) and WWII (Navy Aviation) with 30 years of service total. The kids complained that grandpa had the edge in history because he had read about the Titanic sinking when it happened!
Like the “longhand” accommodation they are making for Harold.
