I found a letter that was sent to my late father during WWII from his cousin, my grandfather's first cousin she was.

In this letter she wrote to, "They are going after the fathers next!".

You could feel her anger reading that note to him.

So, his own father, my grandfather that died in 1957 had to register and possibly serve again even though totally disabled?

as all hell really
