Cool **** over on Reddit: an 88 year old American WW2 veteran answering questions. He was one of the first soldiers to storm Mussolini's castle, and got his bed spread as a souvenir.

My favourite thing he's said so far:

"I fought along side New Zealanders, French, Polish. I thought the British were kinda crazy. At 2 in the afternoon they'd start up a fire for afternoon tea. But they were damn good soldiers."
