I also worked with a WWII Vet who was shot in the face by a German soldier. He lost part of his jaw and was scarred up. We worked at the Tank Plant by Cleveland Hopkins Airport and were in Plant Protection. Allison Division, which was running the plant, got a contract to build a Main Battle Tank in co-operation with the Germans. The guy I worked with was sitting at a desk in the main lobby checking personnel in, and when some of the German engineers came in, he made some very snide remarks about Germans. They had to remove him from the post because of his language towards the German personnel, and was not allowed to work that post again. He was a good guy, but carried a deep and hateful grudge against the Germans because of what happened.
