My grandfather (mothers father) served in the army and was buried alive during an artillery bombardment. He survived but was as deaf as a post for the rest of his life.

I can still remember growing up with him beside me on many a dark night but much to my shame I'm unable to remember any of the details of his regiment etc. and my mom (suffers from dementia) can no longer remind me.
