When one of my favorite uncle's died i found out that he was awarded the silverstar during WWII, which i had no idea about it because i never heard him speak about his service.

Mine didn't talk about it much either, but I do know that he was pulling sailors out of a burning sea every night for the rest of his life.

My great uncles didn't talk about it much either.... but I did get to hear that one missed going to Japan because in Italy, he got a barracks dropped on his foot while moving it. He was genuinely ashamed he didn't do more.

My grandad didn’t start talking about it until much later. Wish I had listened but I was young and dumb.
