My grandfather was an ex POW. got pulled over and detained by cops 6 hrs away while driving and would not give them anything but name rank and serial #. It went downhill from there.
We tried nurse visits, etc but he ended up in a high security dementia facility after he made a dummy from his clothes and tried to escape the regular nursing home after lights out.
I wish we could have done more for him but there was zero cooperation on his part and little recognition that he viewed us as any different from the Nazi camp guards.
Love the spirit of your grandfather.
My father-in-law thought he was the President, and all workers in the facility were his cabinet. He couldn't understand why they weren't responding to his call to "scramble the warships"!
Biden thinks he's the president too. Sometimes. Sometimes he thinks he's Corn Pop.

Lol yes it was good to see but you can imagine why he was a problem for us to take care of and had to go the route he did sadly
That's what anybody should do when stopped by an occupying army.
Yep. Reverted right back to his training.
State police were cool tho. They called my dad at like 1 or 2 in the AM. "Are you related to this man?" "Yes." Explained situation and kept him there til dad got there. He was just sitting on a chair, hunched over like a little kid.
He looked at dad and said "oh, you're with the fuckers now?" Dad said it was the first time he ever heard him swear.
The cop in charge understood, he was going thru same thing with his dad. So there are good ones out there. He had even lost his wallet and damaged his car on this trip but no citations or anything were issued. All in all a very human bunch at that station that day/night.
