My Great Grandmammy, A WW2 Fighter

My Great Grandmammy, A WW2 Fighter
My Great Grandmammy, Cath Wilson was WRAF pilot.
WRAF is basically The Womens Royal Air Force, she joined when she was only 16 which means she tricked the inrollers by changing her birthdate. (Naughty Great Grandmammy)
I am very very very very very pround of her because i would never have done what she did because i would have been scared i would have been caught, and that she fought for her country.

My Great Grandpappy, A WW2 Warrior

My Great Grandpappy, A WW2 Warrior
Well this is a story about my Great Grandpappy. His name is Harry Wilson, wait scrach that, Sgt. Harry Wilson. He was born in England and sadly passed away when he was only 92 in 2010, a couple of weeks after my family came back from going on holiday to see them all.
Sgt. Harry Wilson was only 18 when he signed up for the army. He was later accepted and sent to learn how to be a Tank Commander. He was also a Weapons Instructor so he got to teach young people that would be able to save others lives. Later he was given the title Sgt. of the Yorkshire Regiment which means he was in charge of all the young men how had just joined the army.
I am very very very very very proud of my Great Grandpappy, he was very brave to join and help fight for his country.
