My dad was the only survivor and he was the tail gunner in a Halifax bomber. He sold commercial turf equipment for a living. He was given a purple heart but they took it away from him because he was Canadian. He got the Canadian equivelant. He had lots of stories from the war and other times.

The road went from a single lane into a double lane right before an intersection. The light was red when they got there and this idiot in the car pulled beside my dad and was yelling and swearing at him. My dad without batting an eye, proceeded to pull a hydraulic lever, that lowers the outer reels, and lowered the reel right over the guys head in the convertable.
