I recall you mentioned it at least once. My grandfather (from my father's side) did both wars too. I never knew him, he passed away as he slept a few years before my birth.
He was my grandmother's second spouse. The story is kinda tragic but she married her first husband in Summer 1914 and he immediatly went to the front and never came back. He got killed in action quickly. Sp she actually never lived with him, but when she was in her 80's, before her death, her memory got wonky and the only husband whom she recalled and talked about was the first one, not the second one with whom she had lived for years and who fathered her children, she had completely forgotten my grandfather....
