My grandpa on my dad's side was an interpreter in WWII. My Great Grandma and Grandpa on my mom's side sailed over here from Italy. My Grandpa on my mom's side is 100% Italian.
Wow...you have a lot of history behind yourself...that's so interesting and awesome. My Great, great grandfather lived to be 104 and was a POW in WWII and I believe he was held in Germany.

I just say I'm Chinese. It's easier that way.
Woah...that's so cool. I've never heard a story quiet like that. And this is one reason I think that getting your DNA tested is significant and also intriguing; you can learn something about yourself that you never knew.
