This my grandpa. Born in Ukraine, he eventually settled in New Jersey after WWII.
.
During the war, he fought in the Soviet Red Army against the Nazis.
.
The Nazis were bombing a train that my grandmother was on, and she was having difficulty helping her father evacuate. That’s when a handsome, mustachioed soldier showed up. And that is how my grandparents met.

What I wouldn’t give to have been a fly on the wall for that moment. ~shared by @jaycebasques
