  • I am glad to hear that people can still be reunited with their friends even after 70 years of being apart. I think that this a great story because usually by this age, elderly people forget a lot of things they did or what happened to them when they were younger, but these men were able to pick up right where they left many years ago. I think this is a true story of how a friendship is- no matter how long you may separated, you can pick right up where you left off. 

    • that is very true

  • I think it is a nice story and If that were to happen to me i would be thrilled and share the story like they did.

    • yes this is a very nice story

  • I think that it is cool that they got to come together after all these years and talk. I think it would be crazy if someone was separated for so long and were reunited together especially if they were both 91 years old.

    • yes this is cool that they can reunited after all this time

  • That is awesome! That really shows that friendship can last despite the distance

  • This is an awesome story, that is so amazing that they were reunited like that.

    • I agree

  • It's really inspiring, and it would be a heartbreaking reunion. It's probably like finding a lost family member after so many years.
