Eighty-seven years ago my paternal grandfather, in Nottingham, England, turned 18. At the same time, in Compiegne, France, WWI was ending. I've often joked that grampa should have thanked his mother every year on his birthday for her great timing. There's no doubt that, given his age and class, he would have been drafted had the war continued.
