Poll: Military Service

[micromachine]

I am from a former colony of the United Kingdom, and my family was well represented in the WW1 and WW2.
My maternal great grandfather was an NCO in the Royal Newfoundland Regiment (an infantry unit) during WW1. His service was post Gallipoli & post Beaumont Hamel (were the regiment was decimated). He brought home a war bride from the UK after the war.
One of my maternal great uncles was a wireless air gunner with Bomber Command, while the other was a Merchant Marine during the later stages of WW2.
My maternal grandfather joined the RCAF during WW2, hoping to become a pilot and see the world. Due to poor eyesight, he trained in Canada, and was posted back to Argentia, Newfoundland for the duration of the war in an admin position.
My paternal grandfather joined the RAF and was a ground based radar technician, with postings in the UK and India.
My maternal cousin is serving in the RCN as an engineering officer, and I have toured with him on the ship while in port.
Mty father nor myself have served.
