Elon Musk on his grandfather in World War II: "My grandfather was in World War II for almost six years. All his friends got killed. He's the only one of his friends to survive. And he was severely traumatized. He really just couldn't even talk afterwards. Most of that time was in East Africa, North Africa, Italy. The only reason he's even alive frankly is because towards the end of the war they gave an aptitude test because he was just a corporal. He didn't graduate high school so he wasn't eligible for officer school. And they plucked him out probably right before he died and sent him to work for British intelligence in London which is where he met my grandmother. So he was one of the people fighting to stop the Nazis along with millions of others. So let's not forget that the vast majority of the West fought and died to stop Nazism." Your Family has quite a History. TY for Sharing.💜 My Father was a Veteran and Inspired me to Serve as well. I sometimes Wonder if our Country would be better off if we did something like Israel where high schoolers spent 2 Years serving in the military immediately following graduation?...?🤔
